title: [Photocoagulation in retinopathy of prematurity].
abstract: Presented are the results of treatment by photocoagulation in children with retinopathy of prematurity treated at the Ophthalmic Department of Martin Luther University in Halle in the period of 1978-1985. This method is contemporary less appreciated than the cryocoagulation although encouraging results have been obtained. A particular difficulty shows to be a precise localization of burns. The application of photocoagulation is however further on a method of choice, limited to cases in which cryoapplication is difficult or impossible.
