Abstract

To present a novel, minimally invasive strabismus surgery (MISS) technique for faster and less invasive rectus muscle plication. The new plication method is performed without spatula and, therefore, instead of a total dissection (TODI) only a marginal dissection (MADI) of the plicated part of the muscle is performed. Forty patients operated with combined, horizontal MISS rectus muscle recession/MADI plication are retrospectively compared to a similar group of 49 patients, who had MISS recession/TODI plication. The following outcome parameters were analyzed: alignment, binocular single vision, variations in vision, refraction, conjunctival abnormalities, dose-response relationship, and number and types of complications during the first 6 postoperative months. Postoperatively, the conjunctiva over the plicated muscle was less swollen and red with MADI compared to TODI plication (p < 0.01). In esodeviations, there was no significant difference in the dose-response relationship between MADI and TODI plication (1.38 +/- 0.44 vs. 1.44 +/- 0.50 degrees /mm, p > 0.1). In exodeviations, the difference between MADI and TODI plications was not significant either (1.41 +/- 0.38 vs. 1.42 +/- 0.50 degrees /mm, p > 0.1). Also final alignment,...Continue Reading
