[Corneal covering of cornea in ulcerative keratitis: clinical and histological observations (author's transl)].
Clinical and histological findings are demonstrated in 4 cases with ulcerative keratitis treated by covering with full-thickness cornea. In only two cases the initial keratitis healed with scarring and a keratoplasty could be performed. The donor cornea is resorbed very slowly, remnants of Descemet-membrane of the graft are seen even after 20 months. Immunological reactions could not be observed.
