Abstract:
The conjunctiva's materials from patients with cicatricial pemphigoid were examined histopathologically and ultrastructurally. Non specific changes were shown at the cellular level: leukocytes infiltrations and increase in the amount of connective tissue which cause the scars. Ultrastructurally increase in the number of collagen fibres and disorders in the structure of basal membrane of epithelium were shown. Pathological changes were located mostly in lamina propria of tunica mucosae.
