Congenital Fibrosis of Extraocular Muscles

Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome

A 17-year-old boy presented with a large exotropia with both eyes fixed in an abduction and upgaze, pupillary involvement since childhood. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Binocular vision is often present. The familial and hereditary pattern so often present in the general fibrosis syndrome is rarely encountered. [healio.com]

Four contiguous, 1-mm-thick MRI oblique axial image planes, obtained with heavy T 2 -weighting, are presented in rostral-to-caudal sequence. F igure 4. [iovs.arvojournals.org]

  • Cardiomegaly

    The patient's father possibly had Noonan syndrome as he had a short-neck, sensorineural deafness and cardiomegaly. She also had a sister that had similar facial features and pulmonary stenosis, and died at the age of 19. [jpgmonline.com]

  • Lagophthalmos

    In fact, it might even result in disastrous corneal complications due to significant lagophthalmos that would invariably ensue. [meajo.org]

    Ptosis correction by brow suspension for patients without Bell's phenomenon produces a significant lagophthalmos which can initiate corneal complications. [healio.com]

  • Rotary Nystagmus

    There also was right exotropia and an intermittent mixed horizontal and rotary nystagmus. [jpgmonline.com]

  • Pendular Nystagmus

  • HLA-B27

    HLA-B27 was positive but none of the autoimmune markers was positivie. Other routine blood and biochemical investigations were normal. [jpgmonline.com]

The surgery of both extraocular muscles and ptosis led to a fair outcome in mother even 30 years after, and a very good outcome in daughter 4 years after the treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Early treatment is important because of the risk of amblyopia. Surgery is the primary treatment option for strabismus and blepharoptosis. [ingentaconnect.com]

Treatment Treatment Options: Normal ocular movements cannot be restored but large recessions of the inferior recti followed by frontalis suspension of the upper eyelids can improve severe ptosis and the compensatory chin-up gaze. [disorders.eyes.arizona.edu]

The visual prognosis depends on the treatment of amblyopia. A timely referral to ophthalmology is necessary to begin treatment. If the lid occludes the pupil, the referral is urgent to prevent dense vision loss. [clinicaladvisor.com]

(Etiology) There are 4 forms of Congenital Fibrosis of the Extraocular Muscles and the nature of their cause is described below: CFEOM type 1 and type 3 are caused by the inheritance of specific autosomal dominant genes. [dovemed.com]

The pathophysiology of this disorder is unknown and it is unclear if it has a primary neurogenic or myopathic etiology. We report linkage of this disorder, in two unrelated families, to markers in the pericentromeric region of human chromosome 12. [nature.com]

Congenital fibrosis of the extraocular muscles prevents the normal development and function of these muscles. As a result, affected individuals are unable to move their eyes normally. [ghr.nlm.nih.gov]
