Effect of Y-splitting and Recesion of the Lateral Rectus Muscle for the Upshoot and Downshoot in Duane's Retraction Syndrome
|
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
The upshoot and downshoot are occurred when the eye is rotated into the adducted position in Duane's retraction Syndrome. These phenonemons are believed to be related to a taut or leash effect ("Bridle effect") from the lateral rectus muscle.
Seven
patients with Duane's retraction syndrome demonstrated above findings and underwent Y-sptting and recesion of the lateral rectus muscle. All 7 patients demonstrated a marked decrease in the up-or downshoot and retraction of the eye ball, and
became
better primary position of the eye ball after the operation.
