Pathologic Study of Supernumerary Orbital Band in Type I Duane Syndrome

Conclusions: The findings of dense collagen fibers in the fibrotic band with focal striated muscle correlated with the restrictive strabismus. In concert with other cases in the literature, it is proposed that the fibrous bands are generally associated with restrictive strabismus. Bands that are muscular may or may not be associated with strabismus. Special techniques are needed to positively identify compressed collagen.Ocul Oncol Pathol
