Appearance of keratitis in laboratory mice: influence of azathioprine and meticorten.
Keratitis was noted in mice which were splenectomized and subsequently treated with immunosuppressive drugs. It was found that anaesthesia was the cause of the lesion and not the azathioprine or meticorten administration.
