title: [Keratoplasty à chaud: preliminary study].
abstract: The purpose of this paper is to review causes and follow up of 16 patients who have had a keratoplasty "à chaud" for corneal ulceration, perforation, or reviving chronically abscess, with a 9 years follow-up for a first group, and 8 months for the second. In 58%, the graft remained clear, and in 16%, the acuity was 4 to 6/10 degrees. Keratoplasty "à chaud" seems to be the most efficient method for treatment of inflammation, the most radical to restore the integrity of the eye, and can give oftentimes an accurate optical result.
