RESUMEN
@#AIM: To compare the effects of tear film after conjunctival autograft transplant(CAT)and limbal conjunctival autograft transplant(LCAT)for primary pterygium.<p>METHODS: In a prospective study, 150 patients(150 eyes)diagnosed with primary pterygium were collected in Beijing road medical area of Xinjiang Military Region General Hospital from September 2018 to May 2019. The 150 patients enrolled in the study in turn, and divided into two groups by the odd and even number. The odd number underwent CAT and the even number underwent LCAT. Respectively before surgery and 1, 3, 6mo and 1a after surgery, tear film break-up time(TBUT), SchirmerⅠtest(SⅠt)and ocular surface disease index(OSDI)were checked. The date were compared and analyzed.<p>RESULTS:Totally 129 patients(129 eyes)completed the follow-up of 1a, including 64 patients(64 eyes)from the CAT group and 65 patients(65 eyes)from the LCAT group. Four patients(4 eyes, recurrence rate 6.2%)in the CAT group and 3 patients(3 eyes, recurrence rate 4.6%)in the LCAT group developed recurrence. However, there was no significant in recurrence rate between CAT group and LCAT group(<i>P</i>=0.718). There were significant differences between before surgery and after surgery in each group(<i>P</i><0.05), and there were significant differences between 1mo after surgery and 3, 6mo and 1a after surgery in each group(<i>P</i><0.05), while there was no significant different among 3, 6mo and 1a after surgery in each group in TBUT, SⅠt and OSDI(<i>P</i>>0.05). Also there was no significant different between CAT group and LACT group in each time in TBUT, SⅠt and OSDI(<i>P</i>>0.05).<p>CONCLUSION:Both CAT and LCAT could effectively treat primary pterygium with low and similar recurrence rate, and the degree of improvement of tear film after primary pterygium operation is similar between the two surgical methods.
RESUMEN
@#AIM: To observe the clinical efficacy of limbal-conjunctival autograft transplant(LCAT)for double-head pterygium.<p>METHODS: Prospective case study. Totally 46 patients(54 eyes)diagnosed with double-head pterygium collected in PLA 474 Hospital from January 2014 to July 2015, including 8 patients(16 eyes)with binocular double-head pterygium, 11 patients(11 eyes)with monocular double-head pterygium and the other eye with nasal side pterygium, pterygiun eyes only included as study subject, and 27 patients(27 eyes)with monocular double-head pterygium. The eyes with double-head pterygium underwent pterygium resection and autologous corneal limbal stem cell transplantation, nasal conjunctival flap was gotten from the superior bulbar conjunctiva of affected eye, and temporal conjunctival flap was gotten from the inferior bulbar conjunctiva of other eye. Follow-up the patients on 1d, 7d, 1mo and 1a after operation to complete the vision and slit lamps to observe the complications and pterygium recurrence.<p>RESULTS: Forty-four patients(52 eyes)completed the follow-up of 1a, while 2 patients(2 eyes)were lost. Three patients(3 eyes)developed recurrence, and the recurrence rate was 6%. Two eyes with nasal side pterygium developed recurrence and 1 eye with temporal side pterygium developed recurrence, while there was no complication observed.<p>CONCLUSION: Nasal conjunctival flap was gotten from the superior bulbar conjunctiva of affected eye, and temporal conjunctival flap was gotten from the inferior bulbar conjunctiva of other eye for double-head pterygium had good clinical effect and low recurrence rate, which provide a better way to treat double-head pterygium.
RESUMEN
AIM:To evaluate the application and effect of bandage contact lens in pterygium excision combined with conjunctival transplantation (CAT).METHODS:In a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical study, 110 patients (110 eyes) diagnosed with primary pterygium were collected in PLA NO.474 Hospital from January 2015 to January 2016.The 110 patients enrolled in the study in turn, and divided into two groups by the odd and even number.The odd number divided into bandage contact lens group (CAT + bandage contact lens, n=55), while the even number divided into control group (CAT, n=55).Visual analog scale (VAS) and corneal irritation were evaluated on 1, 3 and 7d after operation.Cornea fluorescent staining testing was carried out on 3d after operation.Following-up all the patients with 1a at least observed the recurrence of pterygium.RESULTS:The score of VAS in bandage contact lens group less than that in control group on 1d (4.13±2.06 vs 5.80±1.93, t=4.391, P<0.001) and 3d (2.09±1.36 vs 3.65±1.65, t=5.422, P<0.001) after operation, while there was no significant difference between two groups on 7d (t=1.295, P=0.198) after operation.The corneal irritation in bandage contact lens group less than that in control group on 1d and 3d after operation (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference between two groups on 7d after operation (P=0.052).Cornea fluorescent staining testing area in bandage contact lens group was less than that in control group on 7d after operation (0.33±0.37mm2 vs 2.73±2.21mm2, t=7.921, P<0.01).There was no significant difference in recurrence rate between two groups after 1a operation (P=1.000).CONCLUSION:Bandage contact lens could significantly release pain and corneal irritation, promote the healing of the corneal epitheliums in the defected area, and increase the postoperative comfort level in patients after operation.
RESUMEN
AIM: To compare the safety and efficacy of conjunctival autograft transplant ( CAT ) and limbal - conjunctival autograft transplant (LCAT) for primary pterygium. METHODS: In this prospective, randomized and controlled clinical study, 120 patients ( 120 eyes ) diagnosed with primary pterygium were collected in NO. 474 Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2014 to January 2015. The 120 patients enrolled in the study in turn, and divided into two group by the odd and even number. The odd number underwent CAT and the even number underwent LCAT. RESULTS:One hundred and seven patients (107 eyes) completed the follow-up of 1a, including 54 patients (54 eyes) from the CAT group and 53 patients (53 eyes) from the LCAT group. Four patients (4 eyes, recurrence rate 7. 4%) in the CAT group and 2 patients ( 2 eyes, recurrence rate 3. 8%) in the LCAT group developed recurrence. However, there were no significant in recurrence rate between CAT group and LCAT group (P =0. 678). CONCLUSION: CAT and LCAT might be both effective treatment for primary pterygium for reducing the recurrence rate of pterygium. However, LCAT is the optimal surgical method for primary pterygium.
