  • Title: Nonsurgical treatment for esotropia secondary to Arnold-Chiari I malformation: A case report.
    Author: Baxstrom CR.
    Journal: Optometry; 2009 Sep; 80(9):472-8. PubMed ID: 19716074.
    Abstract:
    A 14-year-old girl with diplopia and esotropia secondary to Arnold-Chiari I malformation was surgically treated with Arnold-Chiari I malformation decompression (suboccipital craniectomy), C1 and partial C2 laminectomy, and duraplasty. The residual esotropia was treated with compensatory prisms and vision therapy more than 1 year after Arnold-Chiari malformation surgery. The esotropia was resolved after approximately 3.5 months of treatment. Five years later, the patient continued to maintain fusion without compensatory prism.
