[Cicatricial ectropion and lamellar icthyosis (author's transl)].
The authors describe the surgical procedure employed in a case of bilateral cicatricial ectropion (superior and inferior), occurring during the course of a lamellar icthyosis. Total skin homografts should be applied before the appearance of severe corneal lésions on both eyelids, inferior and then superior. Two factors have to be emphasized: the apparent appearance of rejection of the grafts when the first dressings are made, and the progressive retraction of the homografts which requires repeated graft applications.
