“…19 According to The Tanjong Pagar survey population aged 40 and older have a higher prevalence of pterygium. 20 Supanji et al 21 from Indonesia also found the mean age being 53.84 ± 10.91 (range: 29 -81). The Riau study, also shows similar findings like ours with the number of cases peaked in the fourth decade.…”

To evaluate the surgical outcome of use of autologous blood as an adhesive agent in pterygium excision with conjunctival auto-grafting. To observe the effectiveness of autologous blood adherence on the scleral bed and to know whether autologous blood technique can be made as a standard procedure in pterygium surgery or not.The present study is a retrospective observational study. The records of 94 cases of primary pterygium surgery done during August 2022- January 2023 were taken. All patients underwent comprehensive ocular examination pertinent to the disease. Pterygium was dissected and remaining subconjunctival pterygium tissue was separated and excised. The conjunctival limbal auto-graft was taken secured in place by autologous blood and dressing done. Follow-up was done on second post operative day,1st week and 1 month. The study displayed excellent surgical outcome with minimal post operative complications, which too resolved in a week. The most common complication was subconjunctival hemorrhage in 38 cases followed by graft edema in 32 cases. Though graft displacement was observed in 4 cases, they were later rearranged successfully. We did not observe even a single graft loss in our study.Pterygium excision with conjunctival auto-grafting with autologous blood is very safe, less time consuming, easy to perform with less learning curve, economical with excellent postoperative outcome and most importantly more patient satisfaction, thus, making it equivalent to or rather superior to other comparable procedures.

“…16 Hal ini sesuai dengan penelitian Wang dkk ditahun 2020 menunjukan kejadian pterygium tanpa kebiasaan merokok yaitu 70%.16,23 Namun berbeda dengan penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Wangmo dkk ditahun 2021 meneliti terkait dengan distribusi kebiasaan merokok dengan yang tidak merokok dengan hasil pada kejadian pterygium dengan merokok 90,6%. 21 Komorbid hipertensi dengan jumlah tertinggi yaitu memiliki komorbid hipertensi berkisar 574 atau 40,2%. Hal ini sesuai dengan penelitian yang dilakukan Waleed dkk ditahun 2021 meneliti terkait dengan distribusi dan karakteristik komorbid dengan pterygium dengan komorbid hipertensi memiliki nilai paling tinggi, prevalensi hipertensi juga meningkat setiap tahunnya.24,27 Komorbid diabetes melitus dengan nilai 13,8% , diabetes melitus dapat mempengaruhi progresi perkembangan pterygium dengan pembentukan formasi advanced glycation end products (AGEs) terakumulasi pada jaringan fibrosa pada nasal dan temporal konjungtiva.12 Hiperlipidemia pada penelitian ini memiliki hasil 212 atau 22,1% pasien pterygium hal ini sama dengan penelitian yang dilakukan Xiao dkk ditahun 2021 terkait dengan diabetes melitus dan didapatkan hasil sekitar 20,5% atau lebih sedikit dibandingkan dengan yang tidak memiliki komorbid diabetes melitus kemudian untuk hiperlipidemia juga didapatkan hasil lebih tinggi yaitu 50%, menunjukan angka komorbid yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan komorbid diabetes melitus pasien dengan pterygium, akan tetapi belum terdapat perbedaan signifikan antara perbedaan pterygium dengan komorbid hiperlipidemia dan yang tidak memiliki komorbid hiperlipidemia.…”

Objective: To determine the management of primary Pterygium with intralesional Bevacizumab (AVASTIN) Injection. Study Design: Quasi-Experimental Study Place and Duration of Study: Armed Forces Institute of Ophthalmology, Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Oct 2019 to Mar 2020. Methodology: Sixty patients of Primary Pterygium with Grades 1, 2, and 3 were included. Pre-Intralesional injection evaluation includes the Ocular surface disease Index (OSDI), grading of Pterygium and ophthalmic examination, refraction,slit lamp bimicroscopy, fundoscopy, tonometry, and corneal topography. After four weeks of intralesional injection,reassessment was done. Results: A total of 60 participants with the mean age of the participants was 44.06±14.83 years were included in the study. In 26(43.3%) patients, grittiness, epiphora, redness, and photophobia were reported, and 16(26.6%) patients reported blurring of vision that improved in 100% of patients after intralesional injections. There was statistical significance (p-value ≤0.05) in means of K1, Sim K astigmatism, Surface asymmetry index, Surface Regularity Index, Grade of Pterygium, and Ocular surface disease index before and after the intralesional injection of Bevacizumab. However, no significant difference was recorded in Uncorrected Visual Acuity, Best Corrected Visual Acuity, and K2 parameters in pre and post-injection states (p-value ≥0.05).Only 7(11.6%) patients reported subconjunctival haemorrhage after the procedure. Conclusions: Treatment of Primary Pterygium with intralesional Bevacizumab injection successfully improves symptoms,Ocular Surface Disease Index, and reduces corneal astigmatism with minimum complications.
