  • Title: A new mechanism for Brown's syndrome.
    Author: Abrams MS.
    Journal: J Pediatr Ophthalmol Strabismus; 2009; 46(2):115-7. PubMed ID: 19343975.
    Abstract:
    This case report describes a child who developed an acquired bilateral sequential Brown's syndrome, confirmed each time intraoperatively, that is likely the result of a new mechanism not previously described in the literature. Arguments are provided to support the premise of a new mechanism and a new measure of relative trochlear position is suggested to further elucidate the role of "desagittalization" of the superior oblique tendon in the spectrum of superior oblique dysfunction.
