Summary
IN THE AUTHORS' EXPERIMENT THE APPLICATION OF CRYOSURGERY TO THE SCLERA OF RABBITS BY LIQUID NITROGEN CRYOPROBE INDUCED AN EXPERIMENTAL UVEITIS AND RETINITIS.MISROSCOPIC EXAMINATION FINDINGS REVEALED EXUDATION AND CELLULAR INFILTRATION IN THE RETINA AND DESTRUCTION, BOTH BY LIGHT AND ELECTRON MICROSCOPY. SERUM OF THE EXPERIMENTAL RABBITS WAS ADDED ON THE SECTIONS OF PIG EYEBALL AND THE INDIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE TECHNIQUE USED. SPECIFIC FLUORESCENCE OCCURRED IN THE OUTER LAYER OF THE RETINA AND CHOROID. EXPERIMENTS SHOWED THAT CRYOSURGERY APPEARS TO INDUCE AUTOIMMUNE REACTIONS.
