title: The Castroviejo square graft.
abstract: The histopathologic features of three keratoplasty specimens from three cases involving square graft procedures performed by Dr. Castroviejo are reported. Light and electron microscopy were performed. In two of the cases, repeat keratoplasties were performed because of recurrent corneal dystrophies. In the third case, a repeat keratoplasty was performed because of graft failure.
