Abstract
We report the case of a now 6-year-old girl who was born with different abnormalities in each eye. The right eye showed a total sclerocornea. At the age of 4 years we performed a perforating keratoplasty. On the left eye a large staphyloma developed. The staphyloma was excised and a cornea with a scleral rim was fixed in. This transplant became cloudy under a conjunctival flap and blepharoplasty. In addition to the clinical follow-up, histological and immun-histochemical examinations of the corneas were carried out.Entities:
