Resumen
HERNANDEZ SANTOS, Lourdes Rita et al. Isolated Left Inferior Oblique Muscle Palsy. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2023, vol.36, n.3 Epub 01-Sep-2023. ISSN 1561-3070.
Isolated palsy of the inferior oblique muscle is the least frequent of all palsies affecting the extraocular muscles. We present a six-year-old female patient with a medical history who was brought by her mother to the pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus clinic because she presented an ocular deviation since the first months of her life. A Brown's syndrome of the left eye or left inferior oblique muscle palsy was proposed as possible diagnoses, the second diagnosis was confirmed with the forced duction test. There are several surgical options for these patients. The objective was to determine if surgical alignment in the primary gaze position is achieved with the proposed surgical intervention of right superior rectus recession 5 mm. The patient is aligned in the primary gaze position, without limitation of the versions and without torticollis.
