Recession of the Lateral Recti

Recurrence of intermittent exotropia after bilateral lateral rectus recession

“…According to Lim et al ., Ruttum, Raab, and Parks and Stoller et al ., preoperative deviation did not play a role in exotropia recurrence,[ 9 10 13 16 22 ] which agreed with our results, while Gezer reported that smaller preoperative angles of deviation were associated with more favorable outcomes. [ 23 ] In our study, the preoperative angle was smaller in the successfully aligned group, although not statistically significantly.…”

Efficacy of part-time patching in preventing recurrence after bilateral lateral rectus recession in children with intermittent exotropia

“…The factors associated with recurrence after surgery in IXT such as preoperative and postoperative degree of exodeviation, stereopsis, amblyopia, surgical procedures, and type of exotropia were previously reported [20]. Moreover, the age at the time of surgery was also reported to correlate with recurrence [21,22]. In this study, there was a signi cant difference between the reoperation and the non-reoperation group in factors similar to those related to recurrence in previous studies (Table 4).…”

Augmented surgical amounts for intermittent exotropia to prevent recurrence

“…In the surgical management of exotropia, an early postoperative overcorrection has been ascribed either to the induction of diplopia and stimulation of fusional ability or to moving the patients out of their previously induced temporal suppression scotoma which provides long-term stability of ocular alignment. [ 6 7 8 ] When the surgical approach is BLR, while some authors (for example; Raab and Parks,[ 12 ] Lee and Lee,[ 13 ] and Oh and Hwang[ 4 ]) suggested that 10–20 PD esotropia is suitable similar to our study, the others suggested <10 PD esotropia (for example; McNeer[ 14 ] and Ruttum). [ 15 ] When the approach is an RR, Parks suggested only a few PD of overcorrection, while Souza-Dias and Uesugui suggested 5–10 PD of esotropia.…”
