METHODS: In this retrospective study, 142 eyes of 142 pterygium patients (104 primary, 38 recurrent)who underwent CAT (group A), AMT (group B) or CAT with AMT (group C) respectively following surgical excision were reviewed and compared based on the recurrences and post-operative complications. RESULTS: The number of recurrence post-surgery were 17 (9 from primary, 8 from recurrent; the same description below), 18 (10, 8) and 2 (1, 1) in groups A, B, and C respectively; dry eyes were 22 (16, 6), 27 (18, 9) and 7 (3, 4); conjunctival inflammations were 30 (17, 13), 27 (16, 11) and 11 (6, 5). Patients in group C (either pdmary or recurrent or both) mainly showed significantly better results than those in group A or B (P〈0.05) regarding above-mentioned clinical effects. CONCLUSION: Combined CAT and overly AMT have significantly lower rates of recurrence and postoperative complications for primary and recurrent pterygium surgery than CAT or AMT alone.展开更多

Methods: A total of 118 cases (133 eyes) were randomly assigned to receive pterygium resection combined with conjunctival autograft (n=81) or pterygium resection combined with amniotic membrane transplantation(n=52)..Corneal wound healing and neovascularization and the presence or absence of conjunctival proliferation and hyperemia were analyzed at 12 months post-operatively. Results: In the conjunctival autograft group, 6 eyes (7.4%) had recurrent pterygium,.while in the amniotic membrane transplantation group, 10 eyes showed recurrence (19.2%,P<0.05,.chi-square)..Patients in the conjunctival autograft group recovered significantly faster compared with those in the amniotic membrane transplantation group. Conclusion:.Patients receiving pterygium surgery combined with conjunctival autograft had lower recurrence rates and experience faster recovery compared with those undergoing pterygium resection combined with amniotic membrane transplantation.展开更多

No acute rejection was observed after preserved AMT. Ideal healing was found in conjunctiva wound.Conclusion: Preserved AMT is a very effective method to repair wound after giant conjunctival tumor operation. Complete removal of tumor and perfect fixation are the key of ocular surface reconstruction.展开更多

A variety of adjunctive treatment approaches have been developed to improve the clinical efficacy and many related articles have been published. This study aimed to determine the risk for postoperative pterygium recurrence comparing autologous conjunctival transplantation (ACT) versus mitomycin C (MMC). Methods Relevant literature published until December 2010 in Medline, Embase, Cochrane, Cochrane library, Science Citation Index, and Google Scholar were searched. Qualified random clinical trial (RCT) studies on the comparison of recurrence rate of pterygium after ACT and MMC treatment were included in this study. Results Eight RCTs with 663 eyes entered the final analysis. The recurrent rate of pterygium was 8.7% (30/343) for ACT and 18.75% (60/320) for MMC. Using fixed-effect meta analysis, we found that the recurrence was significantly lower after ACT than MMC treatment (odds ratio (OR)=0.40, 95% confidence index (C/), 0.25-0.63, P 〈0.0001). In sensitivity analyses, we employed random-effects model and excluded studies of low quality or studies in which MMC was administrated after the operation. All the sensitivity analyses confirmed that ACT led to lower recurrence rates than MMC. Sub-group analysis revealed that the recurrence rate was 20.2% (20/99) and 27.65% (26/94) for conjunctival autograft (CA) and MMC respectively, and no significant difference in the recurrence rate was detected (OR=0.65, 95% CI 0.33-1.28, P=0.22). However, we found that conjunctival limbal autograft (CLA) had lower recurrence rate than MMC (OR=0.26, 95% CI 0.14-0.48, P=0.0001).展开更多

Methods: This random control study included 63 patients (63 eyes) with primary pterygium. These were randomly divided into a group with corneal limbal conjunctival autograft combined with pterygium excision (group A) and a group with pterygium excision with exposed sclera (group B) and subjected to long-term follow up. The surgical outcomes were classified and evaluated (grade Ⅰ-Ⅳ). Several indexes were analyzed, including ocular surface irritation symptom,tear film stability, surgical complication, and recurrence rate. Results: The follow up ranged from 24 to 38 months, (26.9± 3.4) months on average. No recurrence was noted at 6 weeks postoperatively. At 6 months postoperatively, the recurrence rate of pterygium was 5.2% in group A and 8.0% in group B. At 1 year postoperatively, the recurrence rate in group A was 10.5% and 20.0% in group B. At the end of follow up, the recurrence rates were 13.1% in group A and 24.0% in group B. No statistical significance was found between two groups regarding the recurrence rates at each time point (P>0.05). After the follow up. (> 2 years),the severity of ocular surface conditions was significantly milder in patients in group A than in group B (P <0.01).No statistically significant differences were noted between the two groups at 6 weeks,6 months, and 1 year after surgery. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding postoperative tear film break-up time. Fewer postoperative complications and milder ocular surface irritation symptoms occurred in patients in group A. Conclusion: Corneal limbal conjunctival autograft combined with pterygium excision yields sound long-term efficacy and a low recurrence rate and induces only mild damage on the ocular surface when used as a treatment for pterygium.展开更多
