| Abstract |
|
At the turn of the centry. European and American ophthalmologists began describing the curious set of physical findings that has become known as Duane's retraction syndrome. In 1905 Alexander Duane defined six characteristics in the affected eye: 1) decreased abduction. 2) decreased adduction. 3) retraction into the orbit on adduction. 4) oblique elevation or depression on adduction. 5) partial closure of the eyelids on adduction, and 6) deficient convergence. We experienced two cases of Duane's retraction syndrome from the Kang Nam St. Mary's Hospital in Apr, 1982. Tile first case, 3 yrs old boy was not operated due to orthotropic appearance at primary position, and the case. 21 yrs old female was operated due to severe esotropia. |
