  • Title: [Contusion-suction trauma after globe injuries].
    Author: Kroll P, Stoll W, Kirchhoff E.
    Journal: Klin Monbl Augenheilkd; 1983 Jun; 182(6):555-9. PubMed ID: 6876652.
    Abstract:
    An analysis of ball injuries treated during the last 3 years at Münster University Eye Hospital revealed a difference in the kind of traumata caused by air-filled balls and by solid, inelastic balls. The pathomechanism of a "contusion-suction trauma" is discussed; this would offer a satisfactory explanation not only for injuries of the anterior segment, but also for retinal changes at the outer periphery and the posterior pole.
