[Anterior high frequency capsulotomy. II. Clinico-surgical experiences].
Using an instrument developed by Klöti, the author performed anterior capsulotomy by means of a radio-frequency current in 21 cases of extracapsular cataract extraction. This group is compared with 21 control cases. The advantages and limits of this technique are discussed. The procedure was found to be simple and very helpful to the surgeon. There was no evidence of any damage to structures in the patient's eye.
