Surgical Outcomes of Medial Rectus Recession in Esotropia with Cerebral Palsy
Purpose:
To determine the outcome of a reduced amount of medial rectus (MR) muscle recession in esotropes with cerebral palsy (CP) and to compare the surgical response with that of normal controls.
Design:
Retrospective cohort study.
Participants:
Thirty esotropes with CP and 60 age-matched esotropes without CP who underwent a unilateral or bilateral MR muscle recession.
Methods:
The surgical amount of MR muscle recession was reduced by 1 mm per muscle in patients with CP.
Main Outcome Measures:
Success rates, surgical response, cumulative probabilities of success, and factors affecting surgical (Read more...)
