Abstract |
PURPOSE To provide a case report of 1 patient (1 eye) who experienced recurrences of conjunctival papilloma and was treated with complete resection, electrocauterization, cryotherapy, intraoperative application of mitomycin C and postoperative topical mitomycin C. CASE SUMMARY: We evaluated the clinical course of a 42-year-old male with recurrent conjunctival papillomas on the left upper and lower tarsal conjunctiva who was treated 10 times with a simple resection over the past 8 years. The patient was treated with complete resection, electrocauterization, intraoperative application of mitomycin C and cryotherapy. Topical mitomycin C was applied for 1 month. There was no recurrence or complications for 12 months postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: Complete resection, electrocauterization, intraoperative application of mitomycin C, cryotherapy and topical mitomycin C in patients with recurrent conjunctival papilloma was shown to be an effective treatment without recurrence and complications. |
