Abstract:
AIM:To analyze the efficacy and safety of pterygium resection respectively combined with Ologen collagen matrix implantation and autologous conjunctival flap transplantation.METHODS:A total of 80 patients(87 eyes)with pterygium admitted to the hospital between January 2017 and January 2020 were selected, and randomly divided into observation group(40 patients, 44 eyes)treated with pterygium resection combined with Ologen collagen matrix implantation and control group(40 patients, 43 eyes)treated with pterygium resection combined with autologous conjunctival flap transplantation. The patients were followed up till 12mo after operation. The best corrected visual acuity, corneal astigmatism, surface asymmetry index(SAI), surface regularity index(SRI), corneal epithelial healing, pterygium recurrence and the incidence of complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS:Visual changes of the two groups were similar at 6 and 12mo after operation(P>0.05). Corneal astigmatism, SAI and SRI were reduced in the two groups at 1 and 3mo after operation. The corneal astigmatismat 3mo after operation and SAI, SRI at 1 and 3mo after operation were significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group(all P<0.05). The corneal epithelial healing rate in observation group at 1wk after operation was significantly higher than that in the control group(73% vs 46%, P<0.05), and corneal epithelium of the two groups healed at 2wk after operation. No pterygium recurrence was observed in the two groups within 12mo after operation. The situation of pterygium recurrence was similar in the two groups at 6 and 12mo after operation(P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(7% vs 14%, P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Both pterygium resection combined with Ologen collagen matrix implantation and pterygium resection combined with autologous conjunctival flap transplantation are effective in the treatment of pterygium, with equivalent safety. However, the former has more advantages in improving corneal astigmatism and regular shape of corneal wound.
