We present a case series describing a new reconstructive technique involving an umbilical cord patch for anterior lamellar reconstruction surgery for severe trichiasis as an alternative to mucous membrane grafting.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This was a single-center, retrospective clinical case series involving 18 eyes from 12 patients who underwent eyelid margin reconstruction using a lyophilized umbilical cord patch. Patients were treated with lid margin splitting and resection of pathological eyelash follicles for various indications, including chronic ocular conjunctivitis, trichiasis, ocular pemphigoid, and trachoma. The follow-up period extended over 15 months.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      All patients reported satisfactory tolerance and efficacity. At 1 month, the success rate was 83% (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200915) and at 12 months, it was 89% (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200916). The complication rate was 11%, with no major complications as a result of the graft itself.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Lyophilized umbilical cord patches may offer a valuable option for oculoplastic reconstruction. These cases highlight the utility of using an umbilical cord patch containing Wharton's jelly in eyelid trichiasis surgery, which has traditionally required more invasive techniques. This approach may reduce or eliminate the need for buccal mucous membrane grafts, minimize graft-related scarring, and employ a well-tolerated biological material. We propose considering this technique for patients in whom conventional options have failed or are unsuitable.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/11206721251364301","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,11]],"date-time":"2025-08-11T07:01:33Z","timestamp":1754895693000},"page":"2370-2376","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Lyophilized umbilical cord amniotic membrane in trichiasis surgery: A novel alternative to mucous membrane grafting ?"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"35","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2893-641X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marie","family":"Callet","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pierre-Vincent","family":"Jacomet","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oph\u00e9lie","family":"Vicini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sophie","family":"Azria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mathieu","family":"Zmuda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Natacha","family":"Stolowy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophtalmology, Hopital La Timone, Marseille, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Olivier","family":"Galatoire","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rothschild Foundation Hospital"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3928\/15428877-20110426-01"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","first-page":"00079","article-title":"Innovative use of lyophilized umbilical cord amniotic membrane in the treatment of Mooren's Pseudo-ulcer","volume":"0181","author":"Ya\u00efci R","unstructured":"Ya\u00efci R, Solecki L, Ballonzoli L, et al.
