AbstractBackground: The anatomy of pterygium consists of the head, neck, and body. Prior studies have examined the three parts collectively, yet the treatment methods and their success rates differ based on the anatomical characteristics. In this study, we divide the pterygium tissue into Main (head and neck) and Acc (body) to investigate its pathogenesis across regions. Purposes: This study aims to understand the pathogenesis and identify potential therapeutic targets of pterygium.
