purpose: to report a case of duane's retraction syndrome with dry eye. patient and findings: an 18-year-old girl presented with chief complaint of limited abduction in her right eye. best corrected visual acuity was od: 8/10 and os: 9/10. ocular motility examination revealed severe abduction limitation (-4), mild adduction limitation (-1), and moderate upshoot and mild downshoot in the rig...

purpose: to report clinical features, types, and results of surgery for duane’s retraction syndrome (drs). methods: this is an existing data study on the records of patients with drs. the study was conducted on the hospital records of patients who were referred for drs to a tertiacy eye center in tehran, iran during 8 years. the follow-up period after the surgery was at least 6 months. results:...

duane’s retraction syndrome (drs) type i is often associated with esotropia (et) and face turn in those with fusion. this study was designed to delineate the quantitative relationship between the angles of eye deviation with that of face turn. ten patients with drs type i with et and face turn toward the deviated eye, who had central fixation, were chosen. esodeviation was measured by alternate...

Marcus-gunn phenomenon is a congenital and sometimes hereditary anomaly, in which a ptotic eyelid retracts momentarily when the mouth is open, or the jaw is moved. These associated movements attributed to abnormal connections between the central mechanisms innervating the pterygoid and elevator muscles. Sometimes this anomaly is associated with dual,s retraction syndrome, duplex kindneys and ur...

purpose: to evaluate the clinical features of duane’s syndrome in patients who were referred to nikoo-kari eye centre, tabriz, as a referral centre of northwest of iran. methods: we retrospectively reviewed medical records of all patients with duane’s syndrome who were referred to the strabismus clinic of our center during a 5-year period (2002-2006). clinical and demographic characteristics we...

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 sh...

PURPOSE To study the neuroanatomic characteristics of patients with Duane's retraction syndrome with high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS The study included 11 consecutive cases, including five patients with type I, one patient with type II, four patients with type III, and one patient with inverse Duane's retraction syndrome. The patients underwent magnetic resonance imaging o...

A 12-year-old girl presented with esotropia and face turn since birth. Ocular motility examination showed restricted abduction associated with down shoot and retraction on attempted abduction characteristic of inverse Duane's retraction syndrome. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the very few reported cases of congenital inverse Duane's retraction syndrome.

the silent sinus syndrome (sss) involves painless facial asymmetry and enophthalmos, which is theresult of chronic maxillary sinus atelectasis. in most cases, it is diagnosed clinically, however, usingthe characteristic imaging features including maxillary sinus outlet obstruction, sinus opacification,and sinus volume loss caused by inward retraction of the sinus walls. obstruction of the maxil...
