[Transplantation of functional trabecular meshwork in 9 cases].

On the basis of experiments on rabbits, transplantation of functional trabecular meshwork was performed in 9 cases of absolute angle-closure glaucoma. The surgical reactions were not serious, and the postoperative intraocular pressure decreased significantly by 50%-80% on discharge from the hospital, and in 4 cases followed up for 3 months, by 20%-60%, with 1 case of ocular hypotension. This modality of trabeculoplasty opens a new prospect of ophthalmological organ transplantation for probation.
