title: [Results of experimental studies of the possibility of using low temperature in the treatment of retinopathy of prematurity].
abstract: The purpose of the paper was to study whether the use of cryotherapy can cause decrease of angiogenic activity of the primary avascular retina in kittens with oxygen induced retinopathy. The studies showed that after cryotherapy comes to a considerable decrease of angiogenic activity of this part of the retina. It indicates that cryotherapy should arrest the development of more advanced stages of retinopathy of prematurity.
