Purpose. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Ologen implantation versus conjunctival autograft transplantation for primary pterygium. Methods. A retrospective case-series analysis. Thirty-one eyes of 29 patients were included in the Ologen group and 42 eyes of 35 patients in the autograft group. The patients were followed up for 1 year and evaluated for slit-lamp biomicroscopy, intraocular pressure, and adverse events. Recurrence rate, complications, and final appearance of the cases were evaluated prospectively. Result. At 1 year after operation, 2 eyes recurred (6.5%) in the Ologen group and 4 eyes recurred (9.52%) in the autograft group. There was no statistically significant difference between both groups (P=0.157, χ2 = 3.781). There was no occurrence of serious complications. Two eyes among the 31 eyes of the Ologen group were conjunctivitis; the incidence of complications was 6.45% (2 eyes). There was conjunctivitis in 3 eyes of the autograft group, 1 eye complicated with symblepharon, and 1 eye with conjunctival granuloma; the incidence of complications was 11.90% (5 eyes), and there was no statistically significant difference between both groups (P=0.094). The conjuntiva was less vascular and inflamed at 1 month postoperatively in the Ologen group than in the autograft group. Conclusions. Ologen transplantation was technically easier, provided short operative time compared with conjunctival autograft transplantation, and preserved healthy conjunctiva with less complication and less recurrence; it may be a new, safe, and effective alternative for improving the short-term success rate of primary surgery.

Abstract Background: To compare conjunctival autograft and combined amniotic membrane mini-simple limbal epithelial transplant after primary pterygium excision Methods: A prospective randomized interventional study was conducted on 264 eyes with Primary Pterygium.The patients were divided into Group I (conjunctival autograft) and Group II (mini-simple limbal epithelial transplant). 133 eyes in Group I underwent pterygium excision with a conjunctival autograft using fibrin glue. 131 eyes in Group II underwent mini Simple Limbal Epithelial Transplant with amniotic membrane using fibrin glue. Post-operatively, the patients were reviewed on day 1,3,7,14 & 30 and then at three,six and nine months. Primary outcome measure was the recurrence rate whereas the secondary outcome measures were the intraoperative time and other complications.Recurrence rate was calculated using Fisher’s exact test. Variables like age , preoperative BCVA , operative time and the dimensions of graft were compared using unpaired t test . Other baseline characteristics like gender, Laterality, grades of pterygium(I-III),Occupation and indication of surgery were expressed between the two groups using Pearson’s Chi-Square test. Results: Two hundred and thirty three eyes(118 in group I and 115 in group II) could complete nine months follow-up period. Recurrence was seen in 2(1.6%) cases in group I whereas 3 cases (2.6%) had recurrence in group II(p=0.681).Operative time for group (II) (20.33±1.28 min) was significantly higher (p<0.001) than group I (12.01±1.26). Graft displacement occurred in one case in group II (p=0.999). Conclusions: Despite a longer time,(p<0.001) mini-SLET seems to be a viable and equally effective alternative to CAG in the management of primary pterygium ,especially in cases where conjunctiva needs to be spared.Ethical Clearance Certificate Number : 29/MH/2015 dated 11 Aug 2015

Abstract Background : Pterygium is a common ocular growth, which affects vision, ocular surface function, and aesthetics of the eye. Although various surgical methods are used for treating pterygium, there has been no consensus on the most suitable method. Therefore, it is important to choose the most appropriate and effective surgical method for the treatment of pterygium. The aim of this study was to compare the characteristics and efficacy of limbal-conjunctical autograft transplantation and conjunctival autograft transplantation for the treatment of pterygium. Methods : From August 2015 to December 2016, 80 patients with bilateral primary pterygium in Minhang Hospital affiliated to Fudan University were treated with limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation in one eye (group A) and conjunctival autograft transplantation in the fellow eye (group B). The operative times of the two surgical methods were compared. The corneal epithelial healing times and recurrence rates for the two methods were observed and recorded after two years of follow-up. Results : Eight patients dropped out of the study and 72 patients participated in the final evaluation. The average operative time for group A and group B was 27.56 1.48 minutes and 26.91 1.39 minutes, respectively. There was no significant difference between the operative times for the two groups (t = 1.93, P = 0.058). The average corneal epithelial healing time for groups A and B was 2.56 0.34 days and 4.85 0.49 days, respectively (t=25.26, P < 0.001). Two years after the surgery, pterygium recurred in two eyes (2.78%) in group A and in nine eyes (14.29%) in group B. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (2=4.82, P=0.028). Conclusion : In primary pterygium surgery, the healing time of the corneal epithelium after limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation is shorter than that after conjunctival autograft transplantation, and the pterygium recurrence rate after limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation is lower than that after autologous conjunctival transplantation. Although both limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation and conjunctival autograft transplantation can achieve good clinical results, limbal-conjunctival autograft transplantation is superior to conjunctival autograft transplantation in terms of the corneal epithelial healing time and recurrence rate of pterygium after surgery.
