ABSTRACT

AIM:To compare the curative effect of conjoint fascial sheath suspension and the simple frontalis muscle suspension for moderate or severe ptosis.METHODS:In March 2013 to March 2016 in our hospital, 46 patients with moderately severe ptosis(68 eyes) were taken as the research objects.According to random number table method, they were divided into study group and the control group, 23 cases in each group.Study group(34 eyes) received the joint fascial sheath suspension (CFS), the control group(34 eyes) received frontalis muscle suspension.The degree of ptosis correction, upper eyelid retracted, satisfaction and complications of two groups were compared.RESULTS:The corrected rate of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).After treatment, the upper eyelid retracted of the study group was significantly lower than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The satisfaction of the treatment group was higher than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the study group was significantly less than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Conjoint fascial sheath suspension is more effective on the treatment of severe ptosis than the simple frontalis muscle suspension, and has advantages such as less trauma, repeatable, and less complication.
