The Fasanella-Servat procedure showed a low 28% success rate for managing adult ptosis caused by aponeurotic defects. Further research is needed to improve outcomes for this eyelid condition.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Adult ptosis, specifically the aponeurotic defect type, affects eyelid function and appearance.
  • The Fasanella-Servat procedure is a surgical option for correcting ptosis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of the Fasanella-Servat procedure in managing adult ptosis with aponeurotic defects.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study design was employed.
  • Eighteen Fasanella-Servat procedures were performed on 16 patients.
  • Mean follow-up duration was 3 years.

Main Results:

  • The overall success rate of the Fasanella-Servat procedure was 28%.
  • A mean residual tarsal plate height of 5 mm was observed.

  • Significant variability in tarsal plate contour was noted post-surgery.

    • Conclusions:

    • The Fasanella-Servat procedure demonstrates limited success for aponeurotic defect ptosis.
    • The procedure resulted in inconsistent anatomical outcomes, indicated by variable tarsal plate contour.
