We describe the clinicopathologic features of a corneoscleral
autotransplant in place for 18 years, with excellent visual results. Donor
and some recipient trabecular meshwork was present in some areas. Donor
trabecular meshwork was hypocellular and partially covered by an overgrowth
of uveal melanocytes. A cyclodialysis cleft was present and closed only by
loose connective tissue. It is likely that aqueous outflow was, in part, to
the supraciliary space.
