Creutzfeld-Jakob disease and corneal grafts.

L Herzberg.   

Abstract

The possible danger of surgical transmission of Creutzfeld-Jakob disease from one human being to another has been reported in three instances. Although laboratory attempts at transmission of this disease by corneal grafting have so far failed in animals, it is emphasized that great care should be exercised in the selection of donor material for corneal grafts and renal transplants.
