  • Title: [Light and electron microscopy in one case of herpes zoster keratitis (author's transl)].
    Author: Berard M, Merlihot JM, Mouillac-Gambarelli N, Choux R, Andrac L.
    Journal: J Fr Ophtalmol; 1978 Feb; 1(2):133-8. PubMed ID: 149810.
    Abstract:
    One case of herpes zoster keratitis studied after corneal graft is described. Light and electron microscopy investigations show severe pathological changes under the coneal epithelium: Bowman's layer disruption, superficial stromal alterations, sub-epithelial phagocyte proliferation with lipid and mucopolysaccharid vacuolar deposits, abnormal vascularization of the posterior stroma. The authors stress on this interesting ultrastructural study because of very rare cases of the same disease reported in the literature.
