Resumen

SIBELLO DEUSTUA, Sirley et al. Congenital Fibrosis of Extraocular Muscles. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.1  Epub 29-Ago-2022. ISSN 1561-3070.

Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles is characterized by congenital external ophthalmoplegia, nonprogressive, usually bilateral, with ptosis and altered eye movements. There are several types depending on the affected gene and it may be accompanied by additional ocular or general findings. For the management of these cases, ptosis surgery, ocular alignment and torticollis correction are performed, as well as optical correction and rehabilitation to maximize visual outcome. In order to be updated about this disease, a review of the publications on this subject within the last five years is carried out. Currently, there are no treatments that can restore full functionality and range of motion of the extraocular muscles, but improving their visual functionality is paramount.

Palabras clave : congenital fibrosis; extraocular muscles; ophthalmoplegia; ptosis.
