Extraocular muscle entrapment is a well-recognized complication of orbital fracture, wherein the inferior rectus muscle becomes lodged within the fracture fragments at the time of the initial trauma. New onset entrapment cannot occur without new force applied to the orbit, displacing the fragments and the inferior rectus. Theoretically, in complex orbital fractures, manipulation of disjunct fragments may apply pressure to the orbital contents and induce new entrapment in an otherwise non-operative orbital floor fracture. Here we present the only described case of new extraocular muscle entrapment after open reduction and fixation of a supraorbital rim and frontal sinus fractures and emphasize the need for careful assessment after repair of such a fracture to ensure that new entrapment has not occurred.

Os traumas de face ocorrem por forças externas lesionando o corpo, podendo eles ser locais, gerais ou concomitantes. A etiologia do traumatismo orbitário é diversificada como: quedas, queimaduras e agressões, sendo considerada uma das principais causas de morte no mundo de acordo com Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS). As fraturas faciais podem se dividir em fraturas dos terço superior, terço médio e terço inferior. As fraturas do tipo Blow-outmantêm as margens orbitais integra, envolvendo apenas parede orbital inferior e ou média. Diplopia e enoftalmia são complicações bem características de traumas orbitais. O objetivo do artigo é identificar as principais lesões ocasionadas por fraturas orbitárias e apontar o diagnóstico e tratamento das lesões. Trata-se de uma revisão de literatura do tipo descritiva, com os dados colhidos nas bases de dados PubMed, SciElo, Lilacs, Google Acadêmico, selecionando artigos entre o ano de 2008 – 2018, de língua inglesa, portuguesa e espanhola, disponíveis para download nas bases de dados citadas. Os exames de imagem como a Tomografia Computadorizada é de suma importância para o diagnóstico devido seu detalhamento. Alguns sinais clínicos são: diplopia, enoftalmia, hipoftalmia ou mobilidade muscular ocular prejudicada. O tratamento ainda varia muito entre os cirurgiões.Descritores: Diplopia; Fraturas Ósseas; Órbita; Traumatismo do Nervo Abducente; Nervo Óptico.ReferênciasRamos JC, Almeida MLD, Alencar YCG, de Sousa Filho LF, Figueiredo CHMC, Almeida MSC.

Here we present two cases of marked postoperative upgaze restriction after successful repair of orbital floor fracture and release of inferior rectus entrapment. In both cases, follow-up imaging showed enlargement of the inferior rectus, and gradual resolution of gaze limitation was observed over several months of conservative management. Thus, in patients with postoperative findings suggestive of residual inferior rectus entrapment, follow-up imaging is indicated prior to returning to the operating room. With a markedly swollen inferior rectus muscle but no radiographic evidence of residual muscle entrapment in the fracture, a trial of conservative management may be warranted.

Purpose: To investigate the changes in extraocular muscle thicknesses by variations in the thyroid stimulating antibody (TSAb) level in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED).Methods: A total of 67 TED patients were enrolled. They were divided into two groups: an experimental group with clinically significant elevated TSAb levels (≥140 IU/L) and a control group (TSAb <140 IU/L). All of the lateral, medial, superior, and inferior rectus muscle thicknesses were measured with the aid of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT). The average thicknesses for both eyes were recorded for each patient based on the values measured at the ends of the muscles (which become vertically thinner from the points of tendon attachment). We measured changes in TSAb levels and extraocular muscle thicknesses after two follow-up periods and sought correlations among these parameters.Results: At the initial visits, the inferior rectus muscle thickness was positively correlated with the TSAb level in the experimental group (p = 0.045, r = 0.478). None of the medial, superior, or lateral rectus muscle thicknesses were so correlated. On follow-up, the variation in TSAb level correlated negatively with changes in lateral rectus muscle thickness (p = 0.038, r = -0.357). The superior rectus muscle thickness tended to be negatively correlated with the TSAb level, but statistical significance was not attained (p = 0.146, r = -0.669). The thicknesses of the inferior and superior rectus muscles did not change over time.Conclusions: In TED patients, TSAb variations seem to reflect the extent of periorbital tissue edema, thus correlating negatively with especially lateral rectus muscle thickness changes.

Pulled-in-two syndrome (PITS) is a serious intraoperative complication of strabismus surgery in which an extraocular muscle manipulated during the procedure is ruptured and potentially lost. Usually, there is a systemic or local condition that determines muscle weakness when put under tension. If the proximal portion of the broken muscle can be found, it can be reattached to the ocular globe or remaining muscle. If this is not possible, there are multiple varying approaches. We present three cases of PITS of the inferior rectus muscle, treated with good results with anterior and nasal transposition of the inferior oblique muscle. We propose this surgery as another potential technique if the muscle can not be retrieved.
