Doyne Memorial Lecture, 1977. The superior oblique tendon

M M Parks. Trans Ophthalmol Soc U K (1962). 1977 Jul.

Abstract

New concepts concerning the anatomy of the tissues surrounding the superior oblique tendon are presented. A safe visual approach to the tendon after its penetration through Tenon's capsule is described. The various surgical procedures and techniques developed to weaken the overacting superior oblique muscles associated with A pattern and the taut superior oblique muscle found in Brown's syndrome are reviewed.
