Abstract

CASE REPORT: We report the case of a 3-year-old female patient with therapy refractive recurrent conjunctivitis and membrane formation of the upper eyelid. After surgical removal the histological examination showed an image compatible with ligneous conjunctivitis. A manifest serum plasminogen deficiency (22 %) supported the diagnosis. TREATMENT: The treatment with corticosteroids, heparin-containing and fresh frozen plasma (FFP) eye drops, renewed surgical ablation with perioperative intravenous FFP administration and local cyclosporine A eye drops achieved a stable condition with low disease activity.
CONCLUSION: The combination of these therapy approaches has been performed here for the first time and has not been described in the literature so far.
