An analysis of histological and clinical findings in 102 keratoplasties confirms that suture loosening is often associated with defects found in Bowman's membrane and in the superficial stroma. These structures of the cornea serve as the major supporting layer for a suture. In cases of more generally weakened corneal tissue, like in keratokonus, suture loosening is also a relatively frequent occurance. In this paper we report on our experiences with correction methods, post-operative care and immunoprophylaxis after correction.
对102例角膜移植术的组织学和临床结果分析证实，缝线松动常与鲍曼膜和浅层基质中的缺陷相关。角膜的这些结构是缝线的主要支撑层。在角膜组织普遍较弱的情况下，如圆锥角膜，缝线松动也较为常见。在本文中，我们报告了矫正方法、术后护理及矫正后免疫预防方面的经验。
