However, with this graft surgery wound healing procedure may compromised and may leads to complications like tenon’s granuloma or pyogenic granuloma or stitch granuloma. This complication has to be treated with topical steroid eye drops or surgical excision. Recently, 32 year old female patient presented with a painless progressive, nodular mass following after pterygium surgery on right eye. This developed after 15th post-operative day. Clinical assessment indicates a post-operative granuloma and patient underwent excisional biopsy and subsequent histopathology report confirmed the diagnosis of pyogenic granuloma. Patient was prescribed a steroid eye drops in tapering regimen. No recurrence occurs even after 1 yearproduced by bacteria, such as S. aureus), as well as ampicillin/sulbactam may be administered.Biography
