Surgical Planning for Duane Retraction Syndrome
نویسنده
چکیده
Duane retraction syndrome comprises a group of motility disturbances in which the common feature is co-contraction of medial and lateral rectus muscles on attempted adduction of the involved eye(s). Abnormal clinical features associated with DRS include horizontal deviation in primary position, abnormal head position, retraction of the globe on attempted adduction leading to pseudoptosis, up shoot and/or down shoot in attempted adduction, amblyopia, A,V and X patterns and various ocular and systemic anomalies can also occur. The syndrome is bilateral in 10% to 20% of cases.

Duane retraction syndrome: causes, effects and management strategies
Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) is a congenital eye movement anomaly characterized by variable horizontal duction deficits, with narrowing of the palpebral fissure and globe retraction on attempted adduction, occasionally accompanied by upshoot or down-shoot. The etiopathogenesis of this condition can be explained by a spectrum of mechanical, innervational, neurologic and genetic abnormalities ...

INTRODUCTION The surgical correction of anomalous movement such as upshoot in Duane syndrome is challenging. Lateral rectus muscle disinsertion and reattachment to the lateral orbital wall is a new approach used to minimize or eliminate the effects of co-contraction including globe retraction, palpebral fissure narrowing and anomalous vertical movement. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of a...
متن کاملReview of the major findings about Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) leading to an updated form of classification
In view of all the reported evidence by electromyography in the 1970s, by histology in the 1980s, and by cerebral imagery since the 2000s, Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) has been described as the consequence of a congenital anomaly of the 6th cranial nerve nuclei with aberrant innervations by supply from the 3rd cranial nerve. Both genetic and environmental factors are likely to play a role wh...
