简要总结
Ranibizumab, an effective antineovascular drug, will be studied for safety and efficacy in pterygium, a neovascular disorder of the ocular surface.
详细描述
Ptergyia are chronic fibrovascular lesions of the ocular surface. This study is designed to look for a signal of efficacy when the lesions are in a phase of active vascular growth. This phase is most often caught in a newly recurring pterygia post-operatively.
Patients identified with actively growing lesions, will be offered local injections directly beneath the lesions. They will be examined for any adverse side effects and regression of the lesion.
