Summary
Antinomic deviations, characterized by exotropia and convergence excess, were treated with lateral recti recess and medial recti fadenoperation. This surgical approach, particularly with adjustable sutures, offers a predictable solution for complex strabismus cases.
Area of Science:
- Ophthalmology
- Strabismus Surgery
- Binocular Vision
Context:
- Antinomic deviations present a complex challenge in strabismus management.
- These deviations involve both outward turning (exodeviation) and inward turning (esodeviation) of the eyes.
- Understanding the underlying mechanisms, such as convergence excess and fixation patterns, is crucial.
Purpose:
- To evaluate the efficacy of lateral recti recess combined with medial recti fadenoperation in treating antinomic deviations.
- To analyze different subtypes of antinomic deviations and their surgical management.
- To assess the safety and predictability of adjustable sutures in lateral recti recess for these complex cases.
Summary:
- Thirty-four patients with antinomic deviations underwent surgery involving lateral recti recess and medial recti fadenoperation.
- Four types of antinomic deviations were identified and treated.
- The study found fadenoperation on medial recti logical for convergence excess and fixation in adduction, with adjustable sutures for lateral recti recess being safer and more predictable.
Impact:
- Provides a surgical strategy for complex strabismus cases involving both exodeviation and esodeviation.
- Highlights the importance of addressing convergence excess and fixation preferences in surgical planning.
- Suggests adjustable sutures as a preferred method for lateral recti recess in challenging antinomic deviations, improving surgical outcomes.

Anatomical Positions
In anatomy, several standard anatomical positions are used as references for describing the position and orientation of different body parts. These positions help provide a common frame of reference when discussing anatomical structures. The anatomical position is the standard reference point for describing the body's position and orientation. In this position:
The body is upright, facing forward, and standing erect.
The feet are parallel and flat on the floor.
The arms are hanging by the...

Anatomical Movements
Anatomical movements refer to the various actions or motions that can be performed by the body's joints and muscles. These movements are described using specific terms to provide a standardized way of discussing and understanding the range of motion at different joints.
Here are some common anatomical movements:
Flexion and extension motions are in the sagittal (anterior–posterior) plane of motion. These movements take place at the shoulder, hip, elbow, knee, wrist, metacarpophalangeal,...
