Schematic depiction of the sutured method of AMT for SJS/TEN. AM covers the entire ocular surface, secured by four 4-0 silk double-armed sutures from the fornix to the skin (A: front view; B: side view.) (A and B are reproduced from Meller et al⁴¹ with permission of Ophthalmology.) C: AM is attached to the ulcerated tarsus while dissolving in other areas. D: Fluorescein staining confirms that AM has covered the tarsus. This membrane facilitates conjunctival epithelialization while preventing epidermal migration from the lid margin.
