Ligneous conjunctivitis is a rare form of chronic conjunctivitis. Mostly seen in childhood, it is characterized by the formation of fibrin-rich pseudomembranes in the tarsal conjunctiva. Plasminogen deficiency plays an important role in its etiology. There is no standart treatment protocol for managing this challenging condition, which can, with corneal involvement, lead to blindness. We present twin babies with ligneous conjunctivitis managed with fresh frozen plasma, topical heparin, and topical cyclosporine, without surgical excision of membranes.
细菌性结膜炎是一种罕见的慢性结膜炎。它主要发生在儿童时期,其特征是在睑结膜形成富含纤维蛋白的假膜。纤溶酶原缺乏在其发病机制中起重要作用。目前尚无针对这种具有挑战性的疾病的标准治疗方案,如果角膜受累,可能导致失明。我们介绍了两例双胞胎细菌性结膜炎患儿,他们接受了新鲜冷冻血浆、局部肝素和局部环孢素治疗,而无需手术切除膜。
