Sutureless Lamellar Corneoscleral Patch Graft With Fibrin Sealant for Limbal Dermoid Removal.
A 2-year-old boy with Goldenhar syndrome had a limbal dermoid removed and covered with a lamellar corneoscleral patch graft that was attached with fibrin glue and no sutures. The graft healed and attached well. A sutureless technique is beneficial due to decreased scarring and chance of infection.
