RESUMO
We aim to review the surgical management techniques available for patients with oculomotor nerve (OMN) palsy, compare and contrast the approaches and subsequent outcomes. A search of the literature was carried out to yield all papers relevant to the topic, and a wide spectrum of surgical techniques were identified. These included: muscle shortening and lengthening procedures, muscle transposition, globe fixation and ptosis surgery. Patients often require a synergistic combination of these techniques. Strabismus surgery for OMN palsy can be approached through a variety of different techniques to improve the quality of life, independence and aesthetics for the patient.
