[Keratoplasty. Urgent treatment of the corneal perforation (author's transl)].

Sixteen keratoplasties (15 perforating, 1 lamellar) were performed on 12 perforated corneas and on 2 eyes threatened by imminent corneal perforation. The causal disease was metaherpetic kératitis (6 cases), chronic and recurrent ulcers (4 cases), acute keratoconus (1 case) and corneal traumas (3 cases). Enucleation has been avoided and the anterior chamber was restored in all the cases, with or without anterior synechiae. One case only developed ocular hypertension which was cured by fistulisation. Architectonic results are satisfying in all the cases. Recuperation of visual functions is possible only in the most favourable cases. It is indicated to perform keratoplasty before the perforation when this one seems unavoidable and to consider this surgical procedrue as an emergency when the cornea is perforated.
