The linear parameters and number of Langerhans islets were evaluated in rats with alloxaninduced diabetes mellitus after transplantation of fetal pancreatic tissue to the anterior chamber of the eye. The islets significantly increased in size by week 3 after surgery and a trend to an increase in their number was observed.
