[Treatment of scleral staphyloma by fixation of a fascial graft with Tissucol].
The authors describe the successful procedure used in treatment of a scleral staphyloma which developed on the hydrophthalmic bulbus of a three-year-old child three months after pars plana lensectomy. They covered the defect by an allogenic fascial graft and fixed it with the fibrin tissue glue Tissucol. The method is quick, simple and reliable.
