Objective ocular torsion outcomes after unilateral horizontal rectus surgery in infantile esotropia

Abstract: These results highlight that pathological objective ocular torsion can be frequently found in infantile esotropia and is decreased after unilateral recession-plication surgery.

“…Similarly, Shin et al 8 reported ocular torsion in at least one eye in 30% of IXT patients. Additionally, Khanna et al 18 found that 59% of patients with infantile esotropia exhibited ocular torsion. These findings indicate that objective ocular torsion is not exclusive to cases of cyclovertical strabismus but also occurs in horizontal strabismus.…”

“…For instance, a study involving 60 children aged 3–14 years with IXT accompanied by ocular torsion demonstrated a significant decrease in the degree of ocular torsion after lateral rectus recession 9 . Similarly, Khanna et al 18 investigated the effect of unilateral horizontal rectus surgery on objective ocular torsion in 68 children aged 4–16 years with congenital esotropia. They also reported a significant decrease in the incidence of ocular torsion after surgery, with a significant decrease in DFA in eyes with extorsion and a significant increase in DFA in eyes with intorsion postoperatively 18 .…”

“…Based on the position of the fovea, we considered the eye to be in extorsion when the fovea was located below the horizontal line at the lower edge of the optic disc. We considered the eye to be in intorsion, when the fovea was located above the horizontal line passing through the center of the optic disc 27 . Physiological torsion was defined by the fovea laying in the area between the center and the lower edge of the optic disc.…”

“…Various disorders involving the cyclovertical extraocular muscles could result in cyclodeviation, including traumatic or ischemic superior oblique palsy (SOP), secondary strabismus caused by thyroid-associated orbitopathy, and skew deviation from brainstem lesions (1)(2)(3). Other possible causes are primary oblique muscle overaction with A-or V-pattern strabismus (4)(5)(6), inferior oblique paresis (7) or other vertical muscle palsies (8) from oculomotor nerve palsy, Brown syndrome (9), iatrogenic postoperative cyclotorsion from retrobulbar anesthesia (10,11), and surgically induced cyclotorsion from macular translocation surgery (12), scleral buckling procedure (13), or consecutively from prior strabismus surgery (14)(15)(16)(17). The resulting torsional misalignment may cause severe debilitating symptoms of cyclodiplopia to these patients in the acute state (18), which cannot be alleviated by any prism or orthoptic treatment, except for omitting vision entirely by occlusion or through sensory adaptation mechanisms (19) in chronic conditions.…”
