Abstract

Pterygium is a degenerative and hyperplastic lesion formed by the advancement of the fibrovascular bulbar conjunctiva over the cornea. For treatment, surgical excision is applied and there are methods such as naked sclera method, simple conjunctival closure, conjuncti-val and limbal conjunctival autograft, amniotic membrane transplantation and finally use of platelet-rich fibrin grafts. Pterygium surgery was recommended for our 25-year-old patient who was admitted to our clinic with complaints of redness and low vision in the left eye, with pterjium and astigmatizim. After pterygium excision was applied to the left eye the platelet-rich fibrin graft prepared from venous blood was used for conjunctivoplasty. This article is to present a case using platelet-rich fibrin graft, a new, reliable and prac-tical method in pterygium surgery.

Özet

Pterjiyum, fibrovasküler bulber konjonktivanın kornea üzerine ilerlemesi ile oluşan dejeneratif ve hiperplastik lezyondur. Tedavisinde cerrahi eksizyon uygulanmakta olup, çıplak sklera yöntemi, basit konjonktival kapatma, konjonktival ve limbal konjonktival otogreft, amniyon membran transplantasyonu ve son olarak trombositten zengin fibrin greft kullanımı gibi yöntemler mevcuttur. Sol gözde kıza-rıklık ve görme azlığı şikayeti ile kliniğimize başvuran 25 yaşındaki olgumuza pterjiyum ve astigmatizma tanısı konularak pterjiyum cer-rahisi önerildi. Olgunun sol gözüne pterjiyum eksizyonu uygulandıktan sonra konjonktivaplasti için olgunun venöz kanından hazırla-nan trombositten zengin fibrin grefti kullanıldı. Bu yazıda pterjiyum cerrahisinde yeni, güvenilir ve pratik bir yöntem olan trombositten zengin fibrin greftinin kullanıldığı bir olgu sunulmuştur.
