Pub Med, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane database were searched for eligible literatures published in English until June 2016. The endpoint was recurrence rate and pooled risk ratio（RR） was calculated.RESULTS： Nine eligible studies were included and Metaanalysis results showed no significantly difference in patients treated with bevacizumab in short term followup [3mo： RR=0.70（0.34, 1.45）; 6mo： RR=0.55（0.23, 1.32）] compared with control groups. No significant effects were observed in favor of bevacizumab in subgroup analyses： patients with subconjunctival injection of bevacizumab [3mo： RR=0.95（0.70, 1.29）; 6mo： RR=0.83（0.55, 1.28）], primary pterygium [3mo： RR=0.59（0.23, 1.54; 6mo： RR=0.59（0.23, 1.53）], simple pterygium excision [3mo： 0.32（0.05, 2.04）, P=0.23; 6mo： 0.27（0.05, 1.53）] and excision with conjunctival autograft [3mo： 1.51（0.25, 9.15）; 6mo： 1.11（0.06, 21.69）].CONCLUSION： In this Meta-analysis, we did not found the significant effect of bevacizumab in pterygium treatment, at least in short term follow-up（3mo and 6mo）.展开更多
