  • Title: [Observations on cataract incision dehiscence (author's transl)].
    Author: Bleckmann H.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1977 May; 170(5):690-6. PubMed ID: 330930.
    Abstract:
    24 patients with rupturing corneal incisions were observed within 6 years from 1971 until 1976. 19 patients had already had cataract extractions performed by us. This complication occurred in 0.5% of cases. All ruptures were investigated regarding the period of time after the cataract extraction, and possible precipitating factors. 10X0 atraumatic nylon sutures were shown to be unsuitable for adaptation of corneal edges.
