Bioplast fibrin film for conjunctival replacement.
The study includes 43 cases of conjunctival grafting in chemical burns and traumatic pterygium. Resorbable Bioplast fibrin film was used as a readily available, biocompatible conjunctival subsitute. The implant was absorbed and the site occupied by fresh conjunctival tissue in a few weeks. The composition of tear proteins was restored to normal as fast as after free conjunctival grafting. The results were also satisfactory in terms of cosmetics.
