ABSTRACT
Aim:
To compare the surgical outcome of adjustable with the conventional recession in patients with horizontal comitant strabismus. Patients andMethods:
A prospective comparative nonrandomized interventional pilot study was performed on patients with horizontal comitant strabismus. Fifty‑four patients (27 in each group) were allocated into 2 groups to undergo either adjustable suture (AS) recession or non‑AS (NAS) recession along with conventional resection. The patients were followed up for 6 months. A successful outcome was defined as deviation ±10 prism diopters at 6 months. The results were statistically analyzed by Chi‑square test, Fisher’s exact test, and Student’s t‑test.Results:
A successful outcome was found in 24 (88.8%) patients in AS and 17 (62.9%) in NAS group (P = 0.02). The postoperative adjustment was done in 13 (48.1%) patients in AS group. There was one complication (tenon’s cyst) in AS group.Conclusion:
AS recession may be considered in all cooperative patients undergoing strabismus surgery for comitant deviations.
