RODRIGUEZ-PEREZ, C et al. Amniotic membrane transplantation after surgical resection in conjunctival kaposi's sarcoma. Arch Soc Esp Oftalmol [online]. 2005, vol.80, n.9, pp.525-528. ISSN 0365-6691.
Objectives/Methods: To describe a case of isolated conjunctival Kaposis sarcoma treated with surgical resection and amniotic membrane graft. After surgical resection of the lesion an amniotic membrane graft was used to reconstruct the conjunctival surface. Histological studies were performed. Results/Conclusions: Rapid regeneration of the conjunctiva, with minimal scarring, occurred after the surgical procedure and no recurrence of the lesion was observed at 18 months of follow-up. Surgical resection with amniotic membrane grafting appears to be a useful therapeutic option in isolated conjunctival Kaposi´s sarcoma.
Palavras-chave : Kaposis sarcoma; amniotic membrane; conjunctival tumor.
