The effect of graded recession and anteriorization on unilateral superior oblique palsy

PURPOSE: We wanted to examine the effect of graded recession and anteriorization of the inferior oblique muscle on patients suffering from unilateral superior oblique palsy. METHODS: Inferior oblique muscle graded recession and anteriorization were performed on twenty-two patients (22 eyes) with unilateral superior oblique palsy. The recession and anteriorization were matched to the degree of inferior oblique overaction and hypertropia. The inferior oblique muscle was attached 4 mm posterior to the temporal border of the inferior rectus muscle in six eyes, 3 mm posterior in five eyes, 2 mm posterior in five eyes, 1 mm posterior in five eyes, and parallel to the temporal border in one eye. RESULTS: The average angle of vertical deviation prior to surgery was 11.3 +/- 3.9 prism diopters (PD). The total average correction in the angle of vertical deviation after surgery was 10.8 +/- 3.8 PD. In the parallel group, the average reduction was 14 PD. After surgery, normal inferior oblique muscle action was seen in eighteen of twenty-two eyes (81.8%). CONCLUSIONS: Graded recession and anteriorization of the inferior oblique muscle is thought to be an effective surgical method to treat unilateral superior oblique palsy of less than 15 PD.     

Results of anterior transposition of the inferior oblique

Purpose: We present the results of anterior transposition of the inferior oblique in a series of patients with inferior oblique overaction and dissociated vertical deviation (DVD).
Patients and methods: We performed a retrospective study of 37 procedures on 21 patients who had unilateral or bilateral inferior oblique anterior transpositions. Before surgery, patients had +1 to +3 inferior oblique overaction and +1 (< 10 PD) or +2 (10 PD-20 PD) degree of DVD. The inferior oblique insertion was transposed to between 2 mm posterior to and 2 mm anterior to the temporal border of the inferior rectus insertion. Mean follow-up period was 27 months.
Results: Incidence of inferior oblique overaction of +2 or more was reduced from 84% before surgery to 16% at last postoperative assessments. Some 43% of eyes had no inferior oblique overaction and 86% had an improvement in the degree of inferior oblique overaction. At last assessments, 57% of eyes had no evidence of DVD and 68% of eyes had no evidence of DVD or an improvement in the degree of DVD. No patient who had unilateral anterior transposition developed hypotropia in primary position and there was no evidence of inferior oblique underaction in any patient at last assessment. Three patients requiring repeat inferior oblique surgery are discussed, including one patient who developed a large Y-pattern exotropia after bilateral anterior transposition of the inferior obliques.
Conclusions: Inferior oblique anterior transposition has a place in the treatment of coexistent inferior oblique overaction and dissociated vertical deviation.     

Unilateral anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle for correction of hypertropia in primary position.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the correction of hypertropia in primary position with unilateral inferior oblique (IO) anterior transposition (IOAT). METHODS: Ten patients with idiopathic (nonparalytic, restrictive, or dissociated vertical deviation) hypertropia with marked IO overaction, who underwent unilateral IOAT, were prospectively evaluated to observe the correction of the hypertropia in primary position. No previous ocular muscle surgery had been performed. Four patients had esotropia and two had exotropia. In addition to the proposed surgery, horizontal procedures were performed to correct horizontal deviation, but no vertical transposition of horizontal muscles was done. Four patients had hypertropia and IO overaction, without horizontal strabismus, and IOAT was the only procedure performed. The IO muscle was reinserted 1 mm laterally to the lateral extremity of the inferior rectus muscle insertion using only one suture. The statistical analysis was performed by Wilcoxon rank sum test. RESULTS: The mean absolute correction in primary position was 18.1 prism diopters (PD) (range, 4 to 33), directly proportional to the size of the hypertropia before surgery. Nine of the 10 patients had a residual vertical deviation of 相似文献

Marginal myotomy of the minimally overacting inferior oblique muscle in asymmetric bilateral superior oblique palsies.

PURPOSE: We report the surgical results of marginal myotomy of a minimally overacting inferior oblique muscle in conjunction with traditional recession or myectomy of the greater overacting inferior oblique muscle in 10 patients with asymmetric bilateral superior oblique palsies and asymmetric inferior oblique overaction. METHODS: Ten consecutive patients with bilateral superior oblique palsies had a hypertropia in primary position (5-28 PD) and unequal inferior oblique overaction (0 to +2 in the lesser overacting inferior oblique muscle, +2 to +4 in the greater overacting inferior oblique muscle). Reversal of the hypertropia was noted in ipsilateral oblique upgaze. All patients underwent a recession or myectomy of the greater overacting inferior oblique muscle and a marginal myotomy of the lesser overacting inferior oblique muscle. RESULTS: Seven patients had no vertical deviation in primary position, 2 patients had a residual hypertropia of 2 to 3 PD, and 1 patient had a residual hypertropia of 8 PD. The abnormal head position present preoperatively in 8 patients was eliminated or greatly improved after surgery. Postoperatively all but 1 inferior oblique overaction was graded as 0 to trace. Mean follow-up time was 19 months (range, 1.5-68 months). CONCLUSIONS: In bilateral superior oblique palsies with asymmetric inferior oblique overaction, a mildly overacting inferior oblique muscle can be corrected by marginal myotomy, combined with a recession or myectomy of the greater overacting inferior oblique muscle. This procedure can reduce or eliminate the hypertropia in primary position while minimizing the possibility of residual inferior oblique overaction.

Unilateral inferior oblique anterior transposition for dissociated vertical deviation.

PURPOSE: This study analyzes the outcomes after unilateral inferior oblique anterior transposition (IOAT) for manifest dissociated vertical deviation (DVD). METHODS: A retrospective chart review was conducted for all patients who had unilateral or markedly asymmetric DVD, ipsilateral overaction of the inferior oblique muscle, lack of alternating fixation, and underwent unilateral IOAT surgery between March 1997 and March 2001. In each case, the bunched inferior oblique muscle was anteriorly transposed to the lateral edge of the insertion of the inferior rectus muscle. The primary outcome variable was change in DVD. Secondary outcome variables included inferior oblique muscle action, graded from -4 to +4, and vertical deviation in primary gaze. RESULTS: Ten consecutive patients met the inclusion criteria. Median age at the time of surgery was 14 years (range, 2 to 41 years.) Mean follow-up was 25 months (range, 6 to 60 months). Ipsilateral DVD in primary position decreased from a mean of 20.2 prism diopters (PD) (range, 14 to 33 PD) to 3.7 PD (range, 0 to 9 PD) (t test, P <.001). Nine (90%) of the patients had an excellent postoperative result (residual DVD of 0 to 4 PD) and one (10%) had a good result (5 to 9 PD). Inferior oblique overaction was eliminated in all patients. Mean inferior oblique muscle action decreased from +2.4 to -1.3. Three patients developed a transient or permanent 4 to 5 PD postoperative ipsilateral hypotropia in primary position. Dissociated vertical deviation in the fellow eye did not develop, or if present preoperatively, did not increase. CONCLUSIONS: Unilateral IOAT is an effective treatment for unilateral or markedly asymmetric DVD in patients with a strong, contralateral fixation preference. This surgery reduces inferior oblique overaction but may cause an ipsilateral hypotropia.     

Combined bilateral superior rectus muscle recession and inferior oblique muscle weakening for dissociated vertical deviation.

PURPOSE: Dissociated vertical deviation (DVD) is a common disorder that is often difficult to treat satisfactorily with extraocular muscle surgery. Weakening both elevators in a single eye is uncommonly performed because of possible severe upgaze deficiency or chin-up head posture postoperatively. METHODS: A retrospective review of medical records was performed that yielded 14 patients who had undergone bilateral superior rectus muscle recessions (mean 8.1 mm, range 5-10 mm) and bilateral inferior oblique muscle recession, myectomy, or anterior transposition in the treatment of DVD. Three additional patients with asymmetric inferior oblique muscle overaction or true hypertropia in primary gaze position were identified who had bilateral superior rectus muscle recessions combined with unilateral inferior oblique muscle weakening. RESULTS: Mild-to-moderate elevation deficiencies were common postoperatively but never exceeded -2 up-gaze limitation (scale 0 to -4) except in the immediate postoperative period and were not associated with persistent chin-up head posturing. Cosmetically objectionable upper eyelid retraction occurred in one patient after re-recession of a superior rectus muscle but before inferior oblique muscle surgery. Only three patients undergoing four vertical muscle surgeries had residual DVD >10 PD in primary gaze position, and none exhibited manifest dissociated strabismus warranting further treatment. CONCLUSION: Bilateral superior rectus muscle recession of up to 10 mm combined with inferior oblique muscle weakening appears to be a safe surgical approach in the management of patients with large angle or recurrent DVD. Our data further suggest that simultaneous four vertical muscle surgery may be preferred in some patients to weakening the superior rectus or inferior oblique muscles alone.

Results of anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle in incomitant dissociated vertical deviation.

PURPOSE: Recession with anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle has been shown to effectively decrease dissociated vertical deviation in primary position. However, studies to date have not addressed the long-term postoperative results with respect to residual deviation in lateral gaze, development of A-pattern strabismus, and the effect of the procedure on upgaze. METHODS: Twenty-three eyes in 12 patients were treated with recession with anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle for dissociated vertical deviation greater in adduction than in abduction (termed incomitant dissociated vertical deviation) associated with inferior oblique muscle overaction. Before the operation, dissociated vertical deviation was measured in primary position and lateral gaze, oblique muscle dysfunction was graded, and A or V patterns were measured. Similar measurements were made after the operation. All patients have been followed up for a minimum of 4 years after the operation. RESULTS: Recession with anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle effectively eliminated the dissociated vertical deviation in primary position and in adduction. The operation was less effective in reducing small amounts of dissociated vertical deviation in abduction. No significant A patterns developed after the operation. Postoperative inferior oblique muscle function ranged from -1 underaction to +2 overaction, and postoperative upgaze in abduction was normal to mildly deficient. CONCLUSIONS: Recession with anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle results in long-term improvement of incomitant dissociated vertical deviation, with a low incidence of late development of A patterns and upgaze deficiency.

Efficacy of inferior oblique anterior transposition placement grading for dissociated vertical deviation.

OBJECTIVE: To determine if graded anterior placement of a transposed inferior oblique muscle is beneficial for treating variable amounts of dissociated vertical deviation (DVD). DESIGN: Retrospective, consecutive, comparative case series. PARTICIPANTS: Patients who underwent inferior oblique muscle anterior transposition (IOAT) for DVD at one institution between 1991 and 1999. METHODS: Chart review. All patients had IOAT procedures of graded placement at 1, 2, or 3 mm anterior to the inferior rectus muscle insertion or standard placement at the level of the inferior rectus muscle insertion. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The effect of graded and standard placement was assessed by measuring the difference between preoperative and postoperative DVD and was defined as DVD correction. The success of surgery was judged by the residual DVD at long-term follow-up of 6 months or more. Excellent, fair, and poor outcomes were defined as residual DVD of 0 to 5 prism diopters (PD), 6 to 12 PD, and 13 or more PD, respectively. RESULTS: Fifty-five patients (106 eyes) underwent IOAT for DVD. The comparison of DVD correction for the standard versus graded group yielded significance at long-term follow-up (P = 0.001). This result became nonsignificant after adjusting for preoperative DVD (P = 0.178). The power to detect a 5-PD difference between graded and standard placement was 90%. The surgical success was similar for patients receiving graded and standard IOAT. Patients with 0 to 15 PD of preoperative DVD fared better than those with more than 15 PD of preoperative DVD. CONCLUSIONS: This study does not demonstrate increased correction of DVD with graded IOAT versus standard IOAT. We do not recommend placement of the inferior oblique muscle anterior to the inferior rectus muscle insertion. Inferior oblique muscle anterior transposition for DVD was clinically more effective for smaller amounts of DVD.     

Comparison of anterior transposition and recession of the inferior oblique muscle in unilateral superior oblique paresis

PURPOSE: Both anterior transposition and graded recession have been shown to be effective procedures in weakening the inferior oblique muscle. Anterior transposition may work in part by converting the inferior oblique muscle from an elevator to a depressor of the globe. In theory, this would be useful in treating the inferior oblique overaction associated with superior oblique paresis. We compared inferior oblique recession and anterior transposition for the surgical correction of Knapp's class III unilateral superior oblique paresis. METHODS: Four patients underwent 14 mm recession, and five underwent anterior transposition of the inferior oblique muscle for the hypertropia in superior oblique paresis. Prism cover test measurements were made in all cardinal fields of gaze and were compared before and after operation between the two groups. RESULTS: The mean preoperative hyperdeviation in the primary position was 12 prism diopters in the recession group and 15 prism diopters in the anterior transposition group. The mean postoperative hyperdeviation was 1 prism diopter in the recession group and 3 prism diopters in the anterior transposition group. Postoperative results in the inferior oblique field of action demonstrated a mean 3 prism diopter hypertropia in the recession group and a 2 prism diopter hypotropia in the anterior transposition group. CONCLUSIONS: Anterior transposition and graded recession gave similar results in correcting the primary position hyperdeviation in Knapp's class III superior oblique paresis. Both procedures also markedly improved the hyperdeviation in the field of action of the inferior oblique muscle and superior oblique muscle. However, anterior transposition was more likely to result in postoperative hypodeviation in upgaze.     

Effectiveness of modified inferior oblique muscle belly transposition for V-pattern exotropia combined with mild to moderate inferior oblique muscle overaction

AIM: To investigate the effectiveness of a modified inferior oblique muscle belly transposition for treatment of V-pattern exotropia combined with mild to moderate inferior oblique muscle overaction. METHODS: Thirteen cases (23 affected eyes) of V-pattern exotropia with inferior oblique muscle overaction (+ or ++) who underwent the modified inferior oblique muscle belly transposition procedure were retrospectively reviewed. The amount of V-pattern, grade of inferior oblique overaction, degree of vertical strabismus, abnormal head posture, and the fovea-disc angle were evaluated before and after surgery. RESULTS: The V-pattern was corrected in all cases, and the amount of V-pattern reduced by 17.85±5.13 prism diopter (PD) on average (t=16.07, P<0.001). The surgical cure rate for mild to moderate inferior oblique muscle overaction was 87.0% (20/23). The degree of the fovea-disc angle has a mean reduction of 5.45°±2.87° (t=3.95, P=0.003) after surgery. The mean vertical deviation in 5 cases with a small-angle hypertropia (5.23±3.06 PD) in the primary position reduced by 3.15±1.86 PD (t=6.10, P<0.001). No serious complications were observed. CONCLUSION: The modified inferior oblique muscle belly transposition procedure can effectively treat mild to moderate inferior oblique overaction and relieve the V-pattern, which is safe and easy to perform.

Surgery for strabismus secondary to ethmoid sinus surgery

PURPOSE: To review the outcome of surgery for strabismus due to ethmoid sinus surgery. CASES AND METHODS: The series comprised 13 cases, 1 of inferior rectus paresis, 1 of superior oblique paresis, 6 of medial rectus paresis, and 5 of medial rectus muscle palsy due to third nerve palsy. In the cases of paresis of the rectus muscle, resection of the rectus muscles was mainly performed. In the cases of palsy of the rectus muscle, transposition of the extraocular muscle with simultaneous recession of the lateral rectus muscle was performed. The major aim of surgery was to bring both eyes into alignment and to eliminate diplopia in the primary position. RESULTS: The mean preoperative horizontal deviation of 18.1 degrees of exotropia in the paresis cases was reduced to 1.4 degrees of exotropia after surgery. The mean preoperative vertical deviation of 3.8 degrees of hypertropia was reduced to 1.4 degrees of hypertropia postoperatively. The mean preoperative horizontal deviation of 35.6 degrees of exotropia in the palsy cases was reduced to 9.4 degrees of exotropia after surgery. The mean preoperative vertical deviation of 2.0 degrees of hypertropia was increased to 2.6 degrees of hypertropia postoperatively. Postoperatively, diplopia was absent in 11 cases with a slightly compensatory head posture. CONCLUSION: Surgery for strabismus due to sinus surgery induces improvements in eye position and diplopia.

Transposición del vientre del oblicuo inferior sin desinserción en el tratamiento de la hipertropia en aducción

PurposeTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of inferior oblique muscle transposition and myopexy in patients with mild/moderate inferior oblique muscle overaction, with or without diplopia.MethodWe retrospectively analysed data for the 12 patients who underwent the technique. Data were collected from October 2018 to September 2021. Surgery was performed by suturing the inferior oblique belly to the sclera at 5 mm posterior to the temporal end of the inferior rectus. All 12 patients had mild hypertropia (≤ 6 prism diopters [pd]) in primary position and mild/moderate inferior oblique overaction. Mean preoperative hypertropia was 4.42 pd ± 1.62. Diplopia was recorded in 10 cases. The diagnoses were fourth nerve paresis (9), unilateral primary inferior oblique overaction (2) and dissociated vertical deviation (1). Torticollis was observed in 7 cases, 2 had subjective torsion and 2 objective torsion.ResultsMean age was 46.86 ± 25.1 years (50%: men). Diplopia resolved in 9 of the 10 cases. The mean final vertical deviation was 1.5 ± 2.93 (P = .001) pd in straight gaze. Of 7 mild overshoot in adduction, it disappeared in 3 and 4 remained the same. Of 5 moderate overshoot in adduction, 2 improved to mild and 3 disappeared. Torticollis was eliminated in 5 patients and improved in another 2. Mean time from surgery was 14.08 ± 8.05 months. There were no overcorrections.ConclusionsInferior oblique muscle transposition with myopexy is a safe and effective procedure in patients with mild-to-moderate inferior oblique muscle overaction and small-angle hypertropia, with or without diplopia.
