After marking the limits of the lesion and subconjunctival anesthesia infiltration (0.2<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>ml of 2% lidocaine with 1/200,000 adrenalin), pterygium exeresis was performed, initially releasing the fibrovascular axis, followed by pterygium head resection and elimination of the altered cornea with superficial keratectomy, achieving a dissection plane without residual steps. In recurrent cases, the procedure was more laborious due to greater inflammation and adherence to deep levels. Subsequently, the perilesional Tenon capsule was dissected in full detail, obtaining a receiving area with smooth edges free of Tenon. In all cases a broad exposed scleral bed was obtained, similar to a parallelogram (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>). In the present series, the mean size of the bed sides was 10<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm for the long sides running parallel to the limbus and 5<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm for the short perpendicular sides, making a mean perimeter of 30<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm and 8 mean surface of 50<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>.

For this reason, the surgeon preferred to make the short sides parallel to the limbus and the long sides perpendicular. In this way, larger grafts were obtained which facilitated dissection (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>b).</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The graft limits were marked over the upper conjunctiva with the same rectangular geometric shape as the bed and a size of 1<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm larger on all sides. The Tenon-free conjunctival graft was desiccated with care, avoiding the formation of eyelets and fringes on the edges. The graft was turned over the cornea with the basal face looking upwards and, after releasing it from the limbus, it was slid over the cornea. A hinge maneuver was carried out to place the basal surface of the graft with the scleral bed, with prior sequential application of the 2 Tissucol<span class="elsevierStyleSup">®</span> components to avoid the use of sutures (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>).

Since the success of this procedure was first described in 1985,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0190"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> numerous studies have been published with highly variable relapse rates due to the methodology of each study, age and ethnic group of patients, the nature of pterygium, the definition of recurrence, the follow-up time and the number of studied patients as well as surgeon experience or self-graft mode with the inclusion or not or limbar cell, among other factors.</p><p id="par0105" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Taking into account that the limbar epithelium acts as a barrier to conjunctival overgrowth and that pterygium represents a local limbal deficiency,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0115"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> the inclusion of limbal cells in the conjunctival graft preserving the limbus-limbal orientation can restore the barrier function of the limbus and prevent recurrences. Several studies have demonstrated its effectiveness, with variable relapse rates according to the series between zero and 13.3%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2,12–16</span></a> At present, this is the most accepted pterygium surgery technique for young patients at risk of relapse.</p><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">However, we can find difficulties in this technique in recurrent pterygium cases with broad limbal involvement, oblique pathways or dual advanced areas in which, after resection the lesion, broad scleral beds are obtained that require large conjunctival grafts to ensure complete covering without producing stress. It is precisely in these cases where the technique described herein is useful as it enables better cover for the entire bed because the graft limits are marked on the basis of the receptor area morphology and the dimensions obtained after resection. This ensures the best possible cover without the restriction of preserving limbal orientation.</p><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">No corneoconjunctival recurrence signs were recorded during the 12 month follow-up, and it can be concluded that the restoration of the limbal area in the present cases is not a factor that determines the absence of recurrences. Hypothetically, it could be said that by eradicating damaged in limbal cells and not placing in that area new stem cells which are susceptible to undergo subsequently the same mutations that gave rise to pterygium, we could be adding a factor that prevents recurrence.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">On the other hand, during surgery it was easier to carve the graft because, having a narrower limbal base, subepithelial dissection was faster and diminished the risk of forming eyelets.</p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As conclusion of the results of the present series, it can be said that meticulous surgery with cleavage and broad dissection of Tenon's capsule, dissecting an adequately sized conjunctival graft adapted to the morphology of the scleral bed in order to ensure sufficient stress-free cover, provides good surgical results independently of the preservation of the limbus-limbus orientation, without any case of relapse after 12 months follow-up. The authors propose a safe and efficient technique that can be considered for large pterygium cases, with or without recurrence and with broad limbal involvement that require larger scleral cover by traction-free healthy conjunctiva. However, randomized controlled studies are necessary with a larger number of patients and longer follow-up periods to analyze the influence of other factors related to relapse in order to confirm the present results and compare them with those of other techniques.</p></span><span id="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0110">Conflicts of interest</span><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The authors state that they do not have commercial interests and have not received financial support.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:10 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres733547" "titulo" => "Abstract" "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0005" "titulo" => "Objective" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0010" "titulo" => "Methods" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0015" "titulo" => "Results" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0020" "titulo" => "Conclusions" ] ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec737375" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres733548" "titulo" => "Resumen" "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0025" "titulo" => "Objetivo" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0030" "titulo" => "Método" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0035" "titulo" => "Resultados" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0040" "titulo" => "Conclusiones" ] ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec737376" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 5 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Subjects, material and method" "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Design of the study" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Subjects" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Surgical technique" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0030" "titulo" => "Follow-up" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0035" "titulo" => "Data analysis" ] ] ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0040" "titulo" => "Results" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0045" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0050" "titulo" => "Conflicts of interest" ] 9 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2015-07-31" "fechaAceptado" => "2016-03-18" "PalabrasClave" => array:2 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec737375" "palabras" => array:4 [ 0 => "Pterygium recurrence" 1 => "Pterygium surgery" 2 => "Conjunctival autograft" 3 => "Limbal stem cells" ] ] ] "es" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec737376" "palabras" => array:4 [ 0 => "Recurrencia del pterigión" 1 => "Cirugía de pterigión" 2 => "Autoinjerto conjuntival" 3 => "Células madre limbares" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:2 [ "en" => array:3 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<span id="abst0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0010">Objective</span><p id="spar0005" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">To perform a 12 month follow-up study to assess the safety and effectiveness of resection and conjunctival autograft fixed with Tissucol<span class="elsevierStyleSup">®</span> in selected cases of large pterygium.
