Botulinum toxin for the treatment of strabismus

Ocular Motor Nerve Palsy After Traumatic Brain Injury: A Claims Database Study

“…We found that approximately half of the patients with CN3 palsy after TBI underwent muscle transposition surgery as the first strabismus procedure at a median time of 8 months after the diagnosis of traumatic CN3 palsy. A meta-analysis study concluded that patients with CN6 palsy when treated with botulinum toxin may have a similar or slightly increased chance of correct alignment of eyes in comparison with patients who received no treatment (16). Our results showed that approximately 20% of the patients with CN6 palsy after TBI underwent chemodenervation as the first strabismus procedure.…”

Aetiology, clinical features and surgical outcomes of isolated medial rectus palsy

“…Two of three patients with isolated MRP were orthophoric after surgery and the remaining one showed an under‐correction. A local injection of botulinum toxin A combined with surgery can often produce a decrease in surgical time, enable a reduction in the number of muscles involved and diminish surgical complications 28 . In this study, traumatic or surgical orbital fracture and muscle injury/loss increased the complexity of the disease and the difficulty of the repair and surgical management.…”

We followed the above principles in the surgical treatment of paralytic strabismus.…”
