“…This suggests that alignment in the primary position can correct the face turn effectively despite the muscle duction deficit in the affected eye. Since the primary goal for surgery in DRS is the correction of primary position deviation and torticollis, 12 single contralateral rectus recession may be a proper choice for a patient with poor visual acuity in the fellow eye when the affected eye can reach the midline.…”

A fixation preference for the affected eye is uncommon in patients with unilateral Duane retraction syndrome (DRS), and surgery on the fellow eye is rarely advocated. We are presenting a case report of a 9-year-old boy with unilateral DRS type II in the left eye who received lateral rectus muscle recession in his right amblyopic eye. The patient was orthophoric and his face turn was gone 6 months postoperatively. Surgery on the fellow amblyopic eye is a good choice for unilateral DRS where the affected eye dominants the fixation, and the satisfactory outcome suggests that alignment in the primary position can correct the face turn effectively despite the muscle duction deficit in the affected eye and further extend the binocular single visual field.

“…Fixation preference usually corresponds to the dominant eye based essentially on strabismic dominance, and/or the visual acuity. However, a few cases of fixation preference for the affected eye have been reported (Khan & Oystreck, 2006). DRS is associated with various ocular and nonocular malformations (15-50%) according to the time of development of the ocular and nonocular structures involved (DeRespinis et al, 1993).…”

Review of the major findings about Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) leading to an updated form of classification

In view of all the reported evidence by electromyography in the 1970s, by histology in the 1980s, and by cerebral imagery since the 2000s, Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) has been described as the consequence of a congenital anomaly of the 6th cranial nerve nuclei with aberrant innervations by supply from the 3rd cranial nerve. Both genetic and environmental factors are likely to play a role when the cranial nerves and ocular muscles are developing between the 4th and the 8th week of gestation. New data from eye movement recordings contributed to better understanding the binocular control of saccades. Modeling of saccades in DRS seems promising for the quantification of the innervational deficit and the mechanical properties of the eye plant. The usual clinical classification of DRS needs to be updated in order to match more accurately the underlying dysinnervation of the extra ocular muscles and to illustrate the continuum that exists between the various forms. This review aims to summarize the major findings about DRS and to guide the clinician in the surgical management of this particular form of strabismus.
