Abstract

The authors analyzed the post operative results of the penetrating keratoplasty after removal suture in Ophthalmology Service of University and Hospital's Center in Tours. The age of patients varied 20 to 90 years with an average of 56,83 years. 41,71% of patients had a pseudophakic or aphakic bullous keratopathy. Ocular hypertony was the most frequently post operative complication (63,67%). Final removal's suture improved the transparency of grafts and so the visual acuity in spite of greater endothelial cell loss (65,65%) and residual corneal oedema.
