Incomitant strabismus: does extraocular muscle form denote function?
The paradigm that an "underacting" extraocular muscle is always atrophic or hypoplastic and that an overacting extraocular muscle should always be enlarged leads to inconsistencies with clinical observations. These include findings of "overacting" inferior oblique muscles, superior rectus muscle overaction or contracture syndrome, and normal extraocular muscle diameters in patients with apparen...
متن کاملAccessory extraocular muscle.
Although on cover test the child maintained fixation easily with either eye, he preferred to view with the right eye. A marked left convergent strabismus was present, the deviation being greater on accommodation; the cover test also showed alternating hypertropia. When fixing with the right eye the horizontal deviation was approximately 35A with left hypertropia and when fixing with the left ey...
متن کاملFunctional Anatomy of the Extraocular Muscle Pulleys
2. Which statement concerning the rectus extraocular muscle pulleys is correct? a. The rectus pulleys are composed of rings of cartilage. b. The rectus pulleys are rigidly attached to the walls of the orbit. c. Each rectus pulley receives an insertion from the global layer fibers of its rectus extraocular muscle. d. The global layer fibers of the extraocular muscles do not insert on the pulleys...
متن کاملCreep Behavior of Passive Bovine Extraocular Muscle
This paper characterized bovine extraocular muscles (EOMs) using creep, which represents long-term stretching induced by a constant force. After preliminary optimization of testing conditions, 20 fresh EOM samples were subjected to four different loading rates of 1.67, 3.33, 8.33, and 16.67%/s, after which creep was observed for 1,500 s. A published quasilinear viscoelastic (QLV) relaxation fun...
متن کاملNonthyroid causes of extraocular muscle disease.
Extraocular muscle involvement in orbital disease is most frequently seen as a feature of thyroid orbitopathy (Graves' disease). However, a wide range of other conditions may alter the size, shape, and function of these muscles, with characteristic clinical manifestations or abnormalities visible on orbital imaging. The differential diagnosis of muscle disease can be narrowed by careful analysi...
