Luxation of the globe in Engelmann's disease.

abstract：:We have developed a new model of retinal neovascularization in the rabbit. After intravitreal autotransplantation of 250,000 tissue-cultured skin fibroblasts, we observed strand formation in the midvitreous cavity. These strands grew toward the vascularized part of the retina and attached to it. Once the attachment wa...
