Abstract:
Between September 1986 and June 1988 310 penetrating keratoplasties were performed and prospectively analyzed. The purpose of this prospective study was the evaluation of graft rejections and the underlying corneal diseases. The mean follow-up time was 6.9 months. We found early graft rejections in 5.8% of the eyes. The increased rate of graft rejection in eyes with herpetic corneal ulcers was remarkable.
