 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 9 Modified pterygium excision with fresh amniotic membrane transplantation for treatment of pterygium clinical observation [Abstract] Objective To observe the improvement of surgical excision of pterygium with amniotic membrane transplantation for treatment of pterygium results. Methods micro-toothed forceps to the direction of pterygium organizations to tear off the pupil on the cornea conjunctiva hyperplasia, scrape the cornea residual blood vessels and fibrous connective tissue, and conjunctiva with amniotic membrane graft defect tile. Results cured 59, relapse 3 eyes. Cure rate 95%, the recurrence rate of 5%. Conclusion The new method of pterygium excision, its advantages are: Self-proliferative Nu conjunctiva away from the physical part of the organization, can thoroughly remove hyperplasia and its recurrence rate is low; cornea Department hyperplasia with micro-tweezers tore off without harming Bowman layer and shallow substrate layer, postoperative recovery was not left macula; combined with amniotic membrane transplantation can prevent pterygium recurrence of a number of advantages, it improved fresh pterygium excision combined effect of amniotic membrane grafts for pterygium Jia. [Keywords:] Pterygium; surgery; transplant Pterygium is a common disease and frequently-occurring eye, the predominant treatment method for surgical treatment. Traditional removal method of high recurrence rate, once the relapse, the growth rate accelerated, pterygium organization congestion, hypertrophy, will soon need to re-surgery, multiple operations can lead to symblepharon, muscle adhesions, limited eye movement and diplopia, There is no effective drug treatment. According to corneal limbal stem cell theory and the biological characteristics of amniotic membrane, in our hospital since 2004, using the modified method of surgical removal of pterygium using amniotic membrane transplantation in treatment of pterygium 56 cases of 62 patients were f
