Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
To achieve better outcome, IOBT was introduced. Yang et al. firstly reported that IOBT might be a useful alternative surgical treatment for patients with primary position hypertropia of less than 5△ that was associated with IOOA. Recently, our study has reported that IOBT achieved satisfactory outcomes in patients with mild primary position vertical deviation (≤10△) with unilateral IOOA, without any risk of overcorrection of vertical deviation and contralateral IOOA. Although our results are promising, there is no enough evidence to recommend IOBT for primary position hypertropia with inferior oblique overaction. A large randomized trial is needed to compare the surgical successful rate and suboptimal surgical outcomes of IOBT with IO-Rec for primary position hypertropia with inferior oblique overaction.
The proposed trial will be conducted in 9 different study sites working in the field of pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus. Each site will have one certified surgeon to do all surgeries. For IOBT, the whole belly of inferior oblique muscle is secured with a 6-0 absorbable suture, and then anchors to the sclera 5 mm behind the temporal insertion of the inferior rectus muscle. For IO-Rec, the insertion of inferior oblique muscle is excised and secured with a 6-0 absorbable suture, and then anchors to the sclera 4 mm behind and 2 mm beside the temporal insertion of the inferior rectus muscle.
