Rectus muscle insertion shift at surgery

The authors conducted this study to evaluate the shift in rectus muscle insertion when the muscle is disinserted from the globe but before it is recessed and / or transposed. They measured the amount of central rectus muscle insertion shift...

Whiteboard illustrations added to pre-surgery timeout procedure

The authors present results of a quality improvement initiative. A whiteboard illustrated with right and left eyes with views of the extraocular muscles was developed, the board also contained spaces for the patient’s name, deviation, versions and the procedure name....

Outcomes after surgery for INS

The purpose of this study was to detail clinical and electrophysical outcomes after extraocular muscle surgery in adults with infantile nystagmus syndrome (INS). This was a single centre prospective case series of 81 patients aged 18-72 years (mean 36); 63%...

his study evaluates the benefit of using Tutopatch® to elongate the extraocular muscles in patients with third nerve palsy who have residual strabismus after unsuccessful surgery and no other surgical options considered to be appropriate. The study included nine patients...

Randomised controlled trial for large-angle exotropia surgery

The purpose of this study was to investigate single eye, single setting surgical options to correct 80–90PD of exotropia with two options of muscle transplant and suture hang-back recession. There was retention of anatomical limits of 6mm resection for medial...

Comparison of bupivacaine injection vs. mini-tenotomy for small angle deviations

Bupivacaine hydrochloride is an aminoacyltype local anaesthetic. Injection into extraocular muscles elicits a myotoxic response destroying striated muscle fibres but sparing satellite cells, nerves and vessels. Preserved satellite cells proliferate to form new muscle fibres, causing muscle hypertrophy and greater...

3D modelling of orbital measurements to develop and education resource for orbital pulleys

In this study, 3D modelling software was used to visualise the orbital pulleys and create educational content to facilitate visual understanding of this system. Input of measures were from published data on quantitative anatomy of the globe and extraocular muscles...
