Elongated Needle-Like Structures in Corneal Confocal Microscopy. Representative images illustrate the IVCM observations from different groups and time points of an elongated needle-like structure (NLS). A In G-1, Case-2 at 12 months, the corneal pocket matrix presents the presence of elongated NLS (pink arrows). B G-2 Case-8 at 6 months on the posterior surface of the dCL. Notice the presence of elongated NLS (pink arrows). C In G-3, Case-13 at 1 month, on the posterior surface of the recellularized corneal lamina (rCL), distinct elongated NLS are evident (pink arrows)
