[Immunosuppressive therapy following penetrating keratoplasty (author's transl)]

In 6 cases with poor prognosis who had undergone perforating keratoplasty, the local steroid therapy was combined, for an average duration of 15 months, with a systemic treatment of cyclophosphamide and procarbazine. During a postoperative following up duration between 19 and 32 months five grafts remained clear, however, in 1 case this therapy could not stop an allograft reaction.
