Title Reconsidering Classification of Duane's Retraction Syndrome
Creator Mark Borchert
Affiliation Eye Birth Defects Program and Eye Technology Program in The Vision Center at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
Subject Duane's Syndrome; Aberrant Innervation; Incomitant Strabismus
Description Clinical manifestations of Duane retraction syndrome should be considered on a spectrum of fibrosis and dysinnervation rather than distinct categories. Treatment should be determined by the clinical findings on a case-by-case basis. Huber's classification system does not promote this approach. The purpose of this talk will be to examine the historical categorization of Duane's Syndrome and question the nosological and clinical value of such categorization.
