  • Title: [Cryocoagulation in retinopathy of prematurity].
    Author: Imre G, Salacz G, Radó G.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1987 Nov; 191(5):371-3. PubMed ID: 3431007.
    Abstract:
    Transconjunctival cryocoagulation was performed on 38 eyes of 21 premature infants. The eyes were in stages 2-4 of retinopathy of prematurity. In stage 2 cryocoagulation was performed only if there were hemorrhages and/or a dilatation of the retinal vessels or (once) a rubeosis iridis. Cryocoagulation in stage 2, often considered superfluous, was effective in every case, but in stage 3 it was ineffective in many cases.
