Immunoglobulins in granular corneal dystrophy Groenouw type I.
Three patients with granular corneal dystrophy Groenouw type I underwent corneal grafting, and cryostat sections of the corneal buttons were examined immunohistochemically for immunoglobulins. Positive results were obtained for IgG, Kappa-, and Lambda chains with immunofluorescence technique. The reactions were seen exclusively in the same localizations as the Masson trichrome positive deposits.
