Purpose: Medical plasma application has been used in different fields recently. In this study, we assess the outcome of using plasma-assisted noninvasive surgery (PANIS) with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT) in pterygium surgical treatment. Methods: This clinical case series was conducted in 4 patients with primary grades 1, 2, and 3 pterygium (Table 1). After exclusion and inclusion criteria considerations, patients underwent different examinations. Various measurements were obtained such as uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), refractive error (RE), the best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), and ocular surface disease index (OSDI). The surgical procedure was pterygium removal from the cornea and then AMT attached to the conjunctival borders with plasma spots using a white handpiece of Plexr device (Plexr, GMV s.r.l Grottaferrata, Italy) instead (Table 2). After postoperative follow-ups within the first week of the surgery and in 1 month and 6 months later the results were obtained. Results: All patients have been fully recovered after the surgery without any complications. In all 4 cases, UCVA, BCVA, and RE parameters have improved during 6 months after the surgical procedure. Every patients’ OSDI decreased after the surgery. Recurrence has not been seen in any cases during 6 months follow-up. Conclusion: Pterygium removal surgery using the PANIS technique with AMT is safe, effective, fast, and cost-benefit.

Abstract Purpose: Plasma is one of the newest therapies recently used in Conjunctivochalasis, Conjunctival Cyst, and Blepharoplasty. This study aimed to evaluate a quick treatment modality of conjunctival concretions using plasma as a noninvasive procedure.Design: Six eyes of six patients with conjunctival concretions were evaluated in a clinical case series.Methods: The procedure was performed using plasma spots generated by the white handpiece of the Plexr device. The eyelid was everted and concretions sublimated by plasma spots from the upper and lower eyelids. Refractive Errors, visual acuity (BCVA and UCVA), Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), and Intraocular pressure (IOP) were measured before and after six months of the procedure.Results: The results of 6 months follow-up show that this effective method had no recurrence or side effects. Treatment was effective in all of the patients. No complication and recurrence was observed. The OSDI score was improved to the normal range. This method had no effects on Refractive Errors, Visual Acuity, and IOP. Conclusions: Based on the results, it seems that the PANIS method can be used as a practical, quick, and straightforward approach for the treatment of conjunctival concretions.

ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study is to purpose a novel approach to the concomitant triplanar and tibial shaft fracture. Methods: Retrospective study between 2001 and 2019. We collected the patients’ general information, clinical and radiographic data, and complications after the following three-step treatment: (1) fixation of the Salter-Harris II fracture of the triplane fracture, (2) fixation of the Salter-Harris II/IV fracture with cannulated screws, and (3) fixation of the tibial fracture with flexible titanium nails. Results: The study included seven patients (six males) with a mean age of 14 years and a mean follow-up of 6.4 years (minimum two years). Five triplane fractures had two fragments and two had three fragments. Five fractures were classified as Salter-Harris II and two as Salter-Harris IV. Three tibial fractures were long oblique, three were spiral, and one had a third fragment. Six fractures affected the middle third and one affected the distal third of the tibia. All triplane and tibial fractures consolidated without significant displacement. No physeal damage was identified. Conclusions: This study described the association of tibial fractures with triplane ankle fractures managed by our proposed treatment, which proved to be effective for this fracture association. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.
