Abstract
Objective To study the curative effect of pterygium excision with conjunctival transplantation.Methods 110 cases of primary pterygium,50 cases of them were given surgery including excision and conjunctival trasplantation.60 cases were given simple excision as a control.Results After 10-16 months follow up,the incidence of recurrence was 8% for the conjunctival group and 26.7% for the simple excision group,P0.05.Conclusion Excision with conjunctival transplantation is useful to reduce the recurrence rate of primary pterygium.
