title: [Retinal surface wrinkling and epiretinal membranes in hemorrhagic secondary glaucoma (author's transl)].
abstract: Wrinkling of the retinal surface was found histologically in 54,5% of 88 globes enucleated because of hemorrhagic secondary glaucoma. In 92% of these cases the wrinkles were associated with epiretinal membranes. These were divided into: cellular, fibrous and mixed fibrocellular membranes. The combination of surface wrinkling and pure cellular membranes, interpreted as glial in nature, was found in only 6% of cases while fibrous and mixed membranes occurred in 85% of cases. The fibrous component seems therefore to be an important factor in surface wrinkling retinopathy. Age, sex, intraocular pressure and previous surgery did not influence the frequency or type of these spontaneous epiretinal fibroplasias of vascular etiology.
