Duane retraction syndrome is the most frequently seen restrictive ocular motility disorders. It is clinically presented with limitation of horizontal movement, variable amounts of upshoots or downshoots and globe retraction combined with narrowing of the palpebral aperture on attempted adduction. An 8-year-old patient presented with severe restriction of abduction, reciprocal upshots or downshoots, and globe retraction combined with the palpebral fissure narrowing of on adduction. After the modified Y splitting of LR and recession of both horizontal rectus operation, all cosmetically disfiguring clinical features disappeared. In this case report modified Y splitting procedure and its long-term efficacy is presented.

Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal dominant disorder of connective tissue, while Duane retraction syndrome (DRS) is a congenital cranial dysinnervation disorder (CCDD) which can be transmitted as autosomal dominant disorder in 5–10% of patients. In this paper, we present an 8-year-old girl who presented with left eye DRS and bilateral subluxation of the lens associated with MFS in absence of familial involvement. To our knowledge this is the first case report of DRS with MFS. The occurrence of these syndromes together is very rare and appears to be coincidental.

Duane syndrome is a rare retraction anomaly characterized by congenital non-progressive horizontal ophthalmoplegia and other systemic signs. No data has been yet registered about oral manifestation of Duane syndrome. In this article we present a six years old male patient was diagnosed as having Duane retraction syndrome. He presented skeletal Class III with both maxillary and mandibular protrusion, counter clock-wise mandibular rotation, lingualized maxillary and mandibular incisors, first mandibular molar agenesis, asymmetric morphology of the mandibular condyles and multiple decay lesions. Posteroanterior x-ray showed an asymmetrical craniofacial structure. The aim of this case report was to describe the oral signs of a patient affected by DRS.
