[Sclera autograft in the treatment of avulsive corneoscleral wounds and corneal fistulas].
Autosclera transplantation used in the treatment of avulsive corneoscleral wounds and corneal fistulas is a new effective method. Autosclera was transplanted to 10 patients (4 with corneoscleral wounds and 6 with fistulas) at the Chair for Ophthalmic Diseases of the Kharbin Medical University in the period of 1979-1989. Simultaneously with autosclera transplantation antiglaucoma surgery according to Smith (1974) was carried out. The operation can be performed with unsophisticated instruments, no donor grafts are needed. Vision acuity improved after surgery, intraocular pressure was normal in the follow-up periods of 3 to 36 months.
