After briefly describing the conceptions of the HL-A antigens and of histocompatibility, the authors give an account of their own retrospective examinations in connection with keratoplasty.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
