Pterygium Clinical Trial
Official title:
Interventional Study of Vascularization Detected by ICG Angiography in Amniotic Membrane Graft and Conjunctival Autograft After Pterygium Excision
To evaluate graft vascularization and compare the vascularization patterns of conjunctival autografts with amniotic membrane grafts to better understand the factors involved in pterygium recurrence.
The vascularization and perfusion of conjunctival autografts and amniotic membrane grafts
after surgery may have significance in terms of pterygium recurrence and progression.
Fluorescein angiography of the anterior ocular segment has been used to evaluate ocular
inflammation in scleral inflammation. However, when fluorescein is used, the quality of the
angiograms is limited by rapid extravasation of the dye due to diffusion through the
fenestrated capillaries of the conjunctiva and episclera. Because fluorescein has a low
molecular weight and is not a protein bound molecule, patchy leakage during the first
transit of the dye, which obscures the angiographic details even before the late phases of
the angiogram, can be seen.
In contrast, indocyanine green (ICG) is a larger molecule than fluorescein and is more
highly found in protein bound form. Therefore, it remains within the fenestrated vessels and
shows negligible extravasation, which makes it ideal for use in anterior segment
angiography.
Tan and coworkers have shown that the morphology of pterygium recurrence inevitably reflects
a high degree of vascularity.
In this prospective study, we evaluated the anterior segment indocyanine green angiography
(ICGA) findings for graft vascularization after primary pterygium excision with LCAT or AMT.
