Pterygium Excision with Conjunctival Autograft
This paper will discuss the different approaches to the surgical management of pterygium, emphasizing the conjunctival autograft technique and the use of antimetabolites. HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE Clinically, a pterygium is a wing-shaped fibrovascular growth arising from the bulbar conjunctiva onto the superficial cornea.1 It is composed of a body, which overlies the sclera, and a head, which conf...
متن کاملPterygium treatment with limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation.
The objective of this pilot study was to examine the usefulness of limbal autograft transplantation (LCAT) in the treatment of recurrent pterygium. Eleven eyes with advanced recurrent pterygium underwent LCAT. All eyes were previously treated at least two times either by simple excision (10) or conjunctival rotation autograft (1). In two eyes (18.18%) symblepharon was present at the time of sur...
متن کاملConjunctival autograft in pterygium treatment.
Pterygium is characterized by the thickening of the bulbar conjunctiva and the invasion of the cornea from the sclerocorneal limbus to the central portion of the cornea. Pterygium produces corneal deformation, which extends toward the central portion of the cornea. The visual disorders depend on the corneal extent. The treatment goal is the removal of the corneal and conjunctival portion of the...

متن کاملPterygium Surgery: Comparative Study of Conjunctival Autograft with Suture versus Fibrin Adhesive Cirugía Del Pterigión: Estudio Comparativo Entre Autoinjerto Conjuntival Con Sutura Y Con Adhesivo Tisular
Purpose: To compare recurrence rate, complications, and biomicroscopical findings after conjunctival autograft pterygium surgery with the use of a fibrin glue (Tissucol Duo®, Baxter AG, Vienna, Austria) or suture (7-0 silk). Methods: Patients with nasal pterygium were included in two groups of conjunctival autograft surgery. In 9 of them the graft was sutured to the surrounding conjunctiva and ...
