Authored by Tushar Agarwal, Shikha Gupta, and Namrata Sharma, this book focuses on the intricacies of pterygium management, a fleshy ocular mass that can significantly impact the quality of life of patients. Pterygium, often occurring on the nasal conjunctiva, may cross the limbus and invade the cornea, making it a resilient adversary for ophthalmic surgeons.
Pterygium, despite its innocuous description, poses significant challenges for surgeons. This book is divided into four comprehensive sections, comprising 26 chapters that delve into the etiopathogenesis of pterygium, workup of a case, pterygium excision with conjunctival autografting using glue, and conjunctival excision and extended tenectomy with conjunctival autograft for primary pterygium, among other topics.
In addition to the complexities of pterygium itself, surgeons must also contend with coexisting ocular pathologies that may warrant attention during excision. These special situations include double-headed pterygium, pterygium complicated with co-existing cataract, corneal opacity, ocular surface squamous neoplasia, and glaucoma with operated filtering surgery. The book provides a detailed guide on how to navigate these challenging situations.
This comprehensive guide also offers surgeons the opportunity to learn and master advanced techniques for pterygium surgery, including extensive tenectomy, narrow strip conjunctival autograft, sandwich technique, autologous blood, mini-flap technique, and minor ipsilateral simple limbal epithelial transplantation (mini-SLET). These techniques and their modifications are described in great detail to enable surgeons to replicate the same.
