Zusammenfassung: | A case is presented of a 1-year-old Persian cat with a corneal sequestrum treated with a bidirectional corneoconjunctival transposition. The size of this lesion precluded use of a traditional corneoconjunctival transposition. At the time of writing, the patient maintained a clear visual axis with minimal scarring and no recurrence 6 months post-operatively. This report describes a novel surgical technique used to successfully treat a large feline corneal sequestrum. |
