Abstract

RODRIGUEZ PEREZ, C; DEL CAMPO, Z; WOLLEY DOD, C  and  GRIS, O. Topical treatment with mitomycin C in considerably raised conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia. Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol [online]. 2002, vol.77, n.12, pp.685-688. ISSN 0365-6691.

Case report: We present a case of recurrent conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia, treated previously on two occasions with excisional biopsy. Although the lesion was considerably raised, topical treatment with mitomycin-C 0.04% was applied, achieving the complete regression of the tumor. Discussion: Topical mitomycin-C acts at the ocular surface. However, successive treatment cycles can achieve complete regression, even in considerably thick tumors.

Keywords : Mitomycin C; conjunctival intraepithelial neoplasia; conjunctival displasia.
