The patient demographic data were evaluated. Pre- and post-operative ocular alignment and diplopia status were measured after a follow-up period of at least 6 months. Successful outcomes were categorized into two parts: motor outcome and sensory outcome. Successful motor outcome was defined as vertical deviation equal to 4 prism diopters or less and horizontal deviation equal to 10 prism diopters or less in primary position. Successful sensory outcome was defined as the absence of diplopia in primary position.Results: Ninety patients were included in this study, and the mean age of strabismic surgery was 56.6 ± 10.1 years old. Thirty-nine patients had a history of orbital decompression surgery. Mean follow-up time was 33.7 ± 11.8 months. The success of motor and sensory outcomes exhibited a decrease from one-to-four muscle surgery. Motor success decreased from one-muscle to four-muscle surgery (84.62%, 81.58%, 75.00%, and 64.29%) and sensory success similarly decreased (84.62%, 84.21%, 75.00%, and 78.57%). However, the comparative outcomes of motor success and sensory success were not statistically different among groups (p = 0.58 and 0.84). Lower lid retractions were found in 12 patients (13.33%).Conclusion: Intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning technique might be a successful option for the correction of thyroid eye disease-associated strabismus. This technique may be done with one-to-four muscle surgery, which yields success in both motor and sensory outcomes.Keywords: thyroid eye disease, one-to-four strabismus surgery, intraoperative relaxed muscle positioning, restrictive strabismus, adjustable suture technique |
