The authors employed the \u201cbare-sclera technique\u201d and placed a sterile sponge soaked in a 0.02% mitomycin C solution intraoperatively in the episcleral space for 3 minutes. The control group (15 patients) underwent only surgical excision.

Statistical analysis using Fisher's exact test showed a significant (p=0.027) reduction of recurrences of pterygium in the group treated intraoperatively with mitomycin C.
