The Evolving Story of Pterygium

13 Sept 2018

Abstract excerpt

Pterygium is a fibrovascular subepithelial growth of degenerative tissue over the limbus. It is a common condition worldwide that is especially prevalent in tropical countries within the "pterygium belt." Its exact etiology remains to be elucidated; however, it is strongly associated with exposure to ultraviolet light. The high expression levels of tumor protein p53 (TP53) observed in laboratory studies of...
