Treatment for 'A' or 'V' pattern esotropia by slanting muscle insertion.
BACKGROUND Patients with 'A' or 'V' pattern esotropia without vertical muscle overaction have traditionally been treated with medial rectus recession and vertical transposition of the muscle insertions. METHOD Seven cases are presented treated by slanting muscle insertions, whereby the lower margin of the medial rectus is preferentially recessed more than the upper margin in esotropia, and th...
متن کاملTreatment for "A" and "V" exotropia by slanting muscle insertions.
PURPOSE The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the therapeutic effects of slanting muscle insertions for "A" and "V" exotropia. METHODS We performed slanting recession and resection of medial or lateral rectus muscles. A slanting surgical incision creating a 3-4 mm difference between the upper and lower margins of the muscles was performed in 28 patients with "A" or "V" exotropia ( "...

متن کاملTreatment of A-pattern esotropia with marked mongoloid slanting palpebral fissures.
BACKGROUND The association of oblique palpebral fissures and A- or V-pattern has not been clarified. We report two cases of A-pattern esotropia with marked mongoloid slanting palpebral fissures associated with vertical displacement of the horizontal rectus muscle. CASES Case 1 was a boy with Prader-Willi syndrome. He showed A-pattern esotropia with upward slanting palpebral fissures. Severe s...
متن کاملInsertion slanting strabismus surgical procedures.
Insertion slanting recessions or biased resections have been reported to be useful for treating A- and V-pattern strabismus, convergence insufficiency, and convergence excess esotropia. Paradoxically, good results have been reported with methods that are opposite in nature. For example, some researchers would recess the medial rectus muscles and slant the superior pole of each muscle back farth...
