Schematic representation of a modified surgical method in which three 10–0 sutures are placed in the nasal margin to fix the graft and nasal conjunctiva after fibrin glue adhesive to prevent dehiscence and graft-associated complications. (A) In the conjunctival autografts (CAGs) sealed with glue, the dehiscence and gap between the CAG and conjunctiva easily developed granuloma and recurrence because of an epithelial defect. (B) Three sutures were used to fix the CAG and recipient conjunctiva in the graft nasal margin, preventing dehiscence and graft-associated complications. CAGs = conjunctival autografts.
