The inferior oblique as muscle of choice for biopsies of extraocular muscles.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Suitable biopsies can easily be taken from the inferior oblique muscle without unwanted side effects from the belly of this muscle, allowing complete examination by light and electron microscopy. The inferior oblique is the muscle of choice for biopsy studies of extraocular muscle.

Reinnervation of the extraocular muscles in goldfish is nonselective.
The selectivity of axonal regeneration to the extraocular muscles in teleosts has been reinvestigated by mapping, with retrogradely transported HRP, the motor pools of the muscles innervated by the oculomotor nerve. In normal goldfish, the motoneurons of the superior rectus, inferior rectus, and inferior oblique muscles formed discrete, nonoverlapping motor pools; the motor pool of the medial r...
متن کاملCapillaries of human overacting extraocular muscles.
The capillaries of overacting inferior oblique muscles from children with strabismus and of dog inferior oblique muscles were ultrastructurally described. Biopsy material was used in all instances. The mean diameter of the capillary lumen was 2.03 microns for the human inferior oblique and 2.76 microns for the dog inferior oblique. Quantitative estimates of capillary basement membrane width wer...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of the oculocardiac reflex by traction on human extraocular muscle.
The oculocardiac reflex was quantitatively studied in 15 patients with strabismus. The reflex was observed in all patients when the medial rectus and inferior oblique muscles were stretched; the medial rectus muscle had a lower threshold than the inferior oblique. Bradycardia was evoked in 7 of the 15 patients when the lateral rectus was tractioned with tensions of 50 g and 600 g. The oculocard...
متن کاملCongenital bilateral medial rectus muscle aplasia.
To the Editors: Ocular motility problems related to congenital abnormalities of the extraocular muscles are rare. Such congenital abnormalities may present in a spectrum from accessory additional rectus muscles to the absence of extraocular muscles.1-5 Absence of one or more extraocular muscles is a rare condition usually seen in association with craniofacial syndromes. We present a case of bil...
متن کاملNumber and distribution of neuromuscular spindles in human extraocular muscles.
PURPOSE To examine the number and distribution of muscle spindles in all extraocular muscles (EOMs) in humans. METHODS Thirty-six EOMs were obtained after death from three persons 67, 72, and 83 years of age. Serial sections were made throughout the length of these muscles. Consecutive sections were stained with different methods. To discriminate true spindles from false spindles, light micro...
