  • Title: Single or combined oblique muscle surgery in acquired and congenital superior oblique palsy.
    Author: Steffen H, Kolling GH.
    Journal: Ann N Y Acad Sci; 2005 Apr; 1039():583-7. PubMed ID: 15827028.
    Abstract:
    Oblique muscle surgery with weakening of the inferior oblique muscle alone or in combination with a tuck of the superior oblique tendon reduces in a dose-dependent relationship the vertical deviation in patients with an acquired or congenital superior oblique palsy. Reduction of cyclotropia and the V-sign is less dose dependent.
