Five patients were noted to develop fine crystals in the corneal stroma following rejection of corneal grafts. Four had penetrating, and one lamellar, keratoplasty. All recovered from rejection after steroid therapy. The crystals were fine, gray to tan, refractile, not associated with visual loss, and stable over several months of follow-up. We speculate that these crystals may be related to immune globulin or immune complex deposition, although they may be lipid left after resolution of inflammatory infiltrate.
五名患者在角膜移植排斥反应后，被发现角膜基质中出现细小晶体。其中四名接受了穿透性角膜移植术，一名接受了板层角膜移植术。所有患者在接受类固醇治疗后排斥反应均痊愈。晶体细小，呈灰色至棕褐色，有折光性，不伴有视力丧失，且在数月的随访中保持稳定。我们推测这些晶体可能与免疫球蛋白或免疫复合物沉积有关，尽管它们也可能是炎症浸润消退后留下的脂质。
