Electron microscopy study of cryogenic chorioretinal adhesions.
By electron microscopy, the cryogenic chorioretinal adhesions in eight-day-old lesions from human eyes lacked anatomic adhesion between retina and choroid. In eight-month-old lesions, the neurosensory retina adhered to the retinal pigemtn epithelial layer by both desmosomal attachments and villous interdigitation.
