[Modification of Mackensen's and Corydon's technique for reattaching the ciliary body (author's transl)].

The weakness of Mackensen's and Corydon's method of reattaching the ciliary body in hypotonic syndrome lies in the closure of the scleral wound. We therefore recommend additional fibrinous cementing of the scleral suture with lyophilized dura mater. Since we adopted this technique we have observed no cases of wound dehiscence.
