Amniotic Membrane Grafts in Pediatric Corneal Limbal Dermoids with Conjunctival Eyelashes: A Case Presentation

Purpose: To report a case of a pediatric corneal limbal dermoid with eyelashes and to describe post-operative changes after excision with reconstruction using amniotic membrane grafting, sutures and fibrinogen-thrombin glue. Case Report: One pediatric patient was identified with a grade II infratemporal corneal-limbal dermoid with conjunctival eyelashes. The dermoid was surgically excised and the cornea reconstructed with amniotic membrane using sutures and fibrinogen/thrombin glue. Preoperative and postoperative measurement of astigmatism, anisometropia and presence of exposure keratopathy were performed.
