Stability of one-stage adjustable suture for the correction of horizontal strabismus.
One-stage adjustable suture for strabismus correction, with the whole operation done under topical anaesthesia and adjustment done on the table, was performed on 45 consecutive patients. The stability of the post-adjustment result was studied by comparing the post-adjustment deviation on the operating table to that at six weeks and three months after operation. The stability was comparable to t...
متن کاملADJUSTABLE SUTURE IN STRABISMUS SURGERY
Adjustable suture in strabismus surgery is a way to get accurate alignment of the eyes after operation. This technique is used in cooperative patients, being either adults or children. We report the result of this technique in 120 patients, 70 with esotropia and 50 exotropia. The amount of deviation was between 20 and 60 prismdiopters. The patients were mostly adults and teenagers. and the...
متن کاملParalytic strabismus correction by adjustable suture technique.
The surgical correction of four cases of paralytic strabismus, in which the muscle is repositioned postoperatively with the active co-operation of the patient, is described. The method adopted by the author, by inserting the suture near the limbus, increases the degree of adjustability and allows for more extensive repositioning of the conjunctiva.
متن کاملAdjustable versus non-adjustable suture techniques for concomitant horizontal strabismus: a comparative study.
PURPOSE To compare the surgical results of adjustable and non-adjustable horizontal strabismus surgery for concomitant horizontal strabismus. METHODS The charts of 231 patients, who underwent horizontal strabismus surgery, selected using probabilistic sampling, were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were divided into two groups according to the surgical technique used and strabismus type. Th...
