The main method of pterygium treatment \u2014 its excision \u2014 is often combined with transplantation, non-transplantation, medication and other methods. However, the frequency of pterygium recurrence can exceed 35%, and the cosmetic and refraction outcomes satisfy neither the patient, nor the surgeon. Purpose. The study analyses the technical capability and feasibility for transplantation of the Bowman\u2019s layer in the treatment of recurrent pterygium. Material and methods. The transplantation of the Bowmen\u2019s layer was performed according to the developed technique on 7 eyes with recurrent pterygium (7 patients aged 34 to 63 years). The combined surgery technique consisted of pterygium resection, laser ablation, autoconjunctival plasty, exposure to a cytostatic drug, non-suture transplantation of the Bowman\u2019s layer. Maximum length of the follow-up was 36 months. Analysis involved data from refractometry, visometry (without correction and with spectacle correction), and optical coherence tomography of the retina. Results. There were no complications in any of the studied cases. The cornea and the transplant retained transparency throughout the entire follow-up duration. 36 months after surgery mean spectacle-corrected visual acuity amounted to 0.86\u00b10.2, topographic astigmatism \u2014 1.48\u00b11.4 diopters. Recurrence of pterygium was not observed. All patients were satisfied with the cosmetic outcomes of the treatment. Conclusion. Non-suture transplantation of the Bowmen\u2019s layer recovers normal anatomy, physiology and transparency of the cornea after repeat surgical intervention for pterygium. No pterygium recurrences were observed throughout the entire follow-up after treatment with the proposed combined technique.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.17116\/oftalma202313903190","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,28]],"date-time":"2023-06-28T16:07:37Z","timestamp":1687968457000},"page":"90","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Transplantation of the Bowman\u2019s layer in combined treatment of recurrent pterygium"],"prefix":"10.17116","volume":"139","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3081-2101","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"O.G.","family":"Oganesyan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz National Medical Research Center of Eye Diseases","place":["Moscow, Russia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8775-5216","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"P.M.","family":"Ashikova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz National Medical Research Center of Eye Diseases","place":["Moscow, Russia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2548-5900","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"A.V.","family":"Ivanova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz National Medical Research Center of Eye Diseases","place":["Moscow, Russia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-4397-9026","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"K.B.","family":"Letnikova","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Helmholtz National Medical Research Center of Eye Diseases","place":["Moscow, Russia"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"6743","reference":[{"key":"key-10.17116\/oftalma202313903190-1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Gutierrez AM, Mejia LF.
