Brown's syndrome is a clinical entity which shows restriction of elevation in the adducted position of the affected eye and in which the forced duction test for elevation in adduction is positive. The syndrome has been found to be bilateral in 10% of the cases. The authors experienced Brown's syndrome of both eyes associated with exophoria-tropia and both superior oblique overaction(SOOA OU) in an 18-year-old girl. We performed tenotomy of the superior oblique muscles in both eyes and 8mm recession of left lateral rectus muscle. After operation, orthophoria was achieved in primary, up and downgaze and SOOA of both eyes disappeared and there is only mild restriction of elevation in adduction in each eyes. The same findings were shown in follow up of 6 month after operation. |
