          Abstract

          OBJETIVO: Avaliar a eficácia e a segurança do uso intraoperatório da mitomicina C (MMC) no tratamento cirúrgico do pterígio. MÉTODOS: Estudo de 102 pacientes (204 olhos) divididos em dois grupos, e submetidos a exérese do pterígio com rotação de retalho conjuntival e aplicação intra-operatória de MMC 0,02% por 2 minutos e a mesma técnica utilizando solução salina a 0,9% (grupo controle). Os pacientes foram avaliados no 1º, 7 º, 21º, 30º, 60º e 90º dia de pós-operatório (PO). RESULTADOS: Houve um maior acometimento do pterígio no sexo feminino (59,9%). A idade variou entre 33 a 69 anos. As recidivas (9) no no grupo MMC foram identificadas no 90º PO. No grupo controle foi identificado 18 recidivas em 60 dias de pós-operatório. As complicações identificadas no grupo da MMC foram: ceratite, edema de pálpebra, deiscência de sutura, isquemia, granuloma, corneal dellen e simbléfaro. CONCLUSÃO: O uso da MMC foi útil na redução da taxa de recidiva do pterígio, comparada ao uso de solução salina, porém seus efeitos deletérios devem sempre ser avaliados.

          PURPOSE: Measure of efficacy and the security of intraoperative of mitomycin C (MMC) in the pterygium surgery. METHODS: Realized prospective analysis of 102 patients (204 eyes) divided in two groups submitted intraoperative MMC 0.02 % for 2 minutes or saline solution 0.9%. The patients were available in 1º, 7 º, 21º, 30º, 60º and 90º days of postoperative. RESULTS: The pterygium was more prevalence in females (58,33%). The age various 33 to 69 years. The recidive (9) was in the 90º PO in the group of MMC. In the control group was identificated two recidives in 60 days. The complications found in MMC group were: ceratitis, lips edema, dehiscence of suture, ischemia, granuloma, corneal dellen and simblefaro. CONCLUSION: The use of MMC was useful in reducing the rate of recurrence in pterygium compared to the use of saline solution, but its harmful effects must always be evaluated.

              Intraoperative application of topical mitomycin C 0.05% for pterygium surgery.

              Pterygium recurrence is a common problem encountered by ophthalmic surgeons. Several methods have been suggested to avoid these recurrences. We studied the recurrence rate of pterygium after administration of a single intraoperative dosage of topical mitomycin C 0.05%.
