Abstract

Objective To investigate the indications,techniques and outcome of surgical treatment for extraocular muscle lesions of thyroid-associated ophthlmopathy(TAO).Methods Fibrotic extraocular muscle recession was performed in 24 eyes of 22 TAO patients during 1995 to 2001.Before surgery,the condition had stabilized in all cases following conservative medical treatment.Results After a mean follow-up of 30 months(6 months to 5 years),6 eyes(27.3%)were cured,and 8 eyes(36.4%)were basically cured.Seven eyes(31.8%)were improved,and 1 eye(4.5%)was of no effect.Conclusions Fibrotic extraocular muscle recession is an effective treatment for extraocular muscle lesions of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy if diplopia or compensatory head position is present.
