일시적 결막판피복술을 이용한 감염각막염의 치료

Abstract

Purpose To report two cases of successful management of infectious corneal ulcer with temporary conjunctival flap. Case summary Two patients with acute necrotic corneal ulcer with impending perforation were treated with conjunctival flap surgery, which was subsequently removed within 2 weeks. The inflammation subsided, the ulcer healed with mild to moderate corneal opacity, and the patients achieved improved visual acuity. Conclusions Temporary conjunctival flap can prevent corneal perforation and aid in accelerating wound healing in infectious corneal ulcer and may be an effective therapeutic alternative.
