title: [Experimental assessment of various external tarsorrhaphy techniques].
abstract: The authors first examined morphological differences in interpalpebral fibrous adhesions after "tongue-in-groove" tarsorrhaphy and tarsorrhaphy with additional periosteal fixation. Postsurgical interpalpebral fibrous adhesions indicate the advantages of tarsorrhaphy with periosteal fixation over "tongue-in-groove" tarsorrhaphy and suggest its preference for palpebral fissure narrowing and static correction of lagophthalmos.
