Transposition of Both Oblique Muscles Combined With Lateral Rectus Botulinum Toxin Injection and Globe Fixation Suture in the Treatment of Congenital Cranial Nerve III Palsy.

The authors report a new technique to treat complete cranial nerve III palsy. A 15-year-old girl underwent botulinum toxin injection into the lateral rectus muscle, nasal transposition of both the superior and inferior oblique muscles to the medial rectus insertion, and absorbable suture globe fixation to the nasal orbital periosteum. Six months postoperatively, her primary position eye deviation was within 12 prism diopters of orthotropia with limitation of ductions in all directions.
