BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of limbal conjunctival autograft and low-dose mitomycin C in the treatment of recurrent pterygium.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-four eyes with recurrent pterygium underwent surgical excision followed by the intraoperative application of low-dose (0.05%) mitomycin C and the use of limbal conjunctival autograft. All patients were observed for at least 18 months for any complications, including recurrences.
RESULTS: Neither recurrences nor serious complications were recorded. Visual acuity improved significantly (P < .05) in eyes with pterygium extending 3 mm or more beyond the limbus.
CONCLUSION: Simple excision and low-dose mitomycin C followed by limbal conjunctival autograft is a safe and effective way of treating recurrent pterygium.
