    This study presents surgical treatment for Duane

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Strabismus Surgery
    • Pediatric Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • Duane's syndrome (DVD) is a congenital eye movement disorder.
    • Surgical intervention is often required to correct eye alignment and improve function.
    • Existing surgical techniques have varying outcomes and potential complications.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of supermaximum recessions of the superior rectus muscle for treating Duane's syndrome.
    • To assess the surgical outcomes, including deviation correction and functional limitations.
    • To compare this surgical approach with other treatment modalities for DVD.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 17 patients with DVD who underwent surgery.
    • Supermaximum recession of the superior rectus muscle was performed on the affected eye.

  • Postoperative assessment included eye deviation measurements, lid function, and elevation limitations.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful reduction of manifest deviation to less than 10 prism diopters in 16 out of 17 patients.
    • Four cases (2-6 prism diopters) resulted in over-correction (hypotropia).
    • No significant changes in lid function, elevation, eye preference, or superior rectus saccadic velocities were observed.

    Conclusions:

    • Supermaximum recession of the superior rectus muscle is an effective surgical option for Duane's syndrome.
    • The procedure demonstrates good outcomes in reducing eye deviation with minimal adverse effects.
    • Further comparison with alternative surgical techniques is warranted to optimize DVD management.
