Late spontaneous hyphema following penetrating keratoplasty

ABSTRACT

Late complications following penetrating keratoplasty are multiple. They include, among others, cataract, glaucoma, graft vascularization, suture abscess, graft rejection, epithelialization of the anterior chamber, high astigmatism, transmission of donor disease to recipient, recurrence of original host pathology in the graft, vitreous adhesion and sequelae and cystoid macular edema. We treated a patient who developed a spontaneous active bleeding in the anterior chamber six months after corneal transplantation
