METHODS： The study recruited fourteen patients who developed consecutive exodeviation during follow-up period after the correction of esotropia who were categorized as group 1 and thirty-one patients who had still ≤10 PD esotropia or no deviation at the final visit that were considered as group 2. Clinical risk factors leading the development of consecutive deviation were analyzed as the main outcome measures. RESULTS： The mean age of patients was 4.57±3.11y in group 1 and 5.10±3.52y in group 2 （P=0.634）. There was no significant difference of preoperative near and distant deviations among two groups （P =0.835, 0.928 respectively）. The mean amount of medial rectus recession and lateral rectus resection was similar in both groups （P=0.412, 0.648 respectively）. Convergence insufficiency and neurological diseases were more frequent in group 1 （P-0.007, 0.045）. Accompanying neurological disease was found to be as a significant factor increasing the risk of the development of consecutive exotropia significantly [odds ratios （OR）： 5.75 （1.04-31.93）]. CONCLUSION： Accompanying neurological disease appears to be a significant clinical risk factor for the development of consecutive exodeviation during postoperative follow-up after the correction of esotropia. However, larger studies are needed in order to interpret the results to the clinical practice and to ascertain other concurrent risk factors.展开更多

Methods: This study included 34 patients, aged 21 to 47 years (mean 27.9), who underwent medial rectus muscle<sup> </sup>advancement alone or in combination with medial rectus resection<sup> </sup>and/or lateral rectus recession. The mean interval between original surgery and surgery for consecutive exotropia was 8.5 years (range: 5.5 years to 14 years). Most of patients had 2 and more prior surgeries (73.5%) sold by an adduction deficit (47.06%). Results: The overall mean preoperative exodeviation was 35.12 ± 10.13 PD. Satisfactory alignment (within 10 PD of orthophoria) was achieved in 20 patients (58.8%) at 10 days after surgery and 24 patients (70.5%) at final 6-month follow-up. The most common surgical procedures were unilateral<sup> </sup>MR advancement and LR recession—47%. Conclusion: Medial rectus advancement is an effective method of surgical treatment, especially in cases with adduction limitation, but the risk of the eyelid fissure narrowing in cases of MRM advancement more than 5 mm associated with resection is present. In our opinion for reducing this risk in cases of XT with big angle of deviation, performing a smaller amount of advancement associated with recession of LRM can prevent the development of a such complication.展开更多
