Inferior Oblique Weakening and Abnormal Head Position: Controlled Myotomy versus Recession.

Conclusion. Based on the results obtained and the fewer intrasurgical risks involved, thread Controlled Myotomy proved to be a valid alternative to Recession. Furthermore, in case of Recession, over the long period a small residual AHP remained in the patients who had orthophoria, unlike Myotomy which led to a total resolution. PMID: 28018670 [PubMed]
