title: Expulsive choroidal effusion during cataract surgery (in a case with Fuchs' heterochromic cyclitis).
abstract: A case of massive choroidal detachment during cataract extraction is described. Some thoughts about the pathophysiology of expulsive detachment in this case are discussed (Fuchs' heterochromy cyclitis and high blood pressure). The prognosis is good without need of posterior sclerotomy but with steroid treatment for a longer period.
