Abstract
- Nine patient with paralyzed strabismus of large deviation(Seven patients with lateral rectus or medial rectus muscle palsy and two patients with double elevator palsy) had full tendon transposition procedure. If remained strabismus was large postoperatively, recession of anatagonist of paralyzed muscle and botulinum toxin infection was performed respectively. Five patients achieved single binocular vision within central 10 degree of visual field. And six patients achieved less than 10 prism diopter of deviation in primary position. Our method compares favorably with previously descrived transposition procedure for muscle palsy in terms of the amount of correction and the extent of the window of single binocular vision with low risk of anterior ischemia syndrome.
