[Immunomorphological study of time course of repair of corneal deep burn defects after stromal equivalent transplantation].

Early defects due to the afflux of monocytic phagocytes into the inflammatory focus, rapid resorption of detritis and normalisation of correlation between contents of matrix proteinases and their inhibitors, stimulation of stromal cornea keratinocytes migration and their proliferation characterize repair of postburn defects in transplantation of the stromal equivalent. Repair against the background of stromal equivalent transplantation is of a histotypical character: collagen gel organizes and serves the basis for migration of the cornea fibroblasts and temporary matrix for growing new epithelium, while restored basal membrane is a derivative of cornea epithelium.
