Unilateral lateral rectus palsy following dengue: a case report
CONCLUSION: This is the first documented case report of paralytic squint post-severe dengue in Nepal, emphasizing the importance of considering it as a differential diagnosis in tropical regions with endemic dengue infections. The case report advocates early identification and treatment of ophthalmic issues, notably with prednisolone, to achieve favourable outcomes, as evidenced by improvements in visual acuity, esotropia, and diplopia during follow-ups. Further research is essential to determine optimal treatment strategies for such neurological complications associated with dengue fever.PMID:38694359 | PMC:PMC11060301 | ...

Influence of Pre- and Intraoperative Local Anaesthetic in Strabismus Surgery under General Anaesthesia in Adults
CONCLUSION: As this increases patient safety and comfort and is cost-effective (less time in the recovery room), we recommend adding perioperative local anaesthesia to strabismus surgery performed under general anaesthesia.PMID:38653301 | DOI:10.1055/a-2268-9411 (Source: Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde)

Early-onset dysphagia and severe neurodevelopmental disorder as early signs in a patient with two novel variants in NARS1: a case report and brief review of the literature
We present the case of a patient referred in infancy for failure to thrive and acquired microcephaly (head circumference: -5 SD). During follow-up we highlighted: dysphagia (which became increasingly severe until it became incompatible with oral feeding, with gastrostomy implantation, resulting in resolution of feeding difficulties), strabismus, hypotonia. NCV (Nerve Conduction Velocity) showed four limbs neuropathy, neurophysiological examination performed at 2 years of age mainly sensory and demyelinating. Exome sequencing (ES) was performed, detecting two novel compound heterozygous variants in theNARS1 gene (OMIM *1084...

Anterior transposition of the inferior oblique and anti-elevation syndrome - how far to go?
Conclusions: The anterior transposition of the inferior oblique with "J" deformity increases the risk of anti-elevation syndrome. Additionally, placing the sutures more anteriorly than 2 mm posterior to the inferior rectus insertion increases the incidence of this finding.PMID:38647121 | DOI:10.1080/09273972.2024.2338790 (Source: Strabismus)
