| dc.description.abstract | We aimed to evaluate the surgical results of inferior rectus (IR) recession with adjustable loop suture under topical anesthesia for vertical deviations secondary to thyroid ophthalmopathy. Five patients were enrolled in the study. All patients had a vertical deviation greater than 15 PD and severe limitation of upgaze. Post- surgical follow up was at least 12 months. Mean pre- operative vertical deviation decreased from 24 PD to 2.4 PD at 1 year postoperatively. Two patients were orthotropic and 3 patients had residual hypotropia ranged from 2 PD to 6 PD. Upgaze limitation relieved significantly in the post-operative period. As we obtained satisfactory results without any significant complications in our patients, we advocate that recession of the IR with adjustable loop suture under topical anesthesia is safe and effective in patients with thyroid ophthalmopathy. | en_US |
