Title: Proliferations in the vitreous cavity after perforating injuries. A histopathological study. Author: Faulborn J, Topping TM. Journal: Albrecht Von Graefes Arch Klin Exp Ophthalmol; 1978 Feb 22; 205(3):157-66. PubMed ID: 305730. Abstract: Histologic specimens from 32 human eyes that had been enucleated at different intervals after servere injuries were studied. Following the rules of general wound repair, intraocular proliferations start two to four days after the injury and may be massively developed within one week after injury. Their cell composition and extent are related to the site and extent of tissue damage and the amount of hemorrhage. The findings support the recommendation of a primary vitreous repair in severely injured eyes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
