Popis: | Several ptosis problems bring plastic surgeons and strabologists together to share experiences and ideas. I n general, there are the analyses of active and passive forces, the surgery on positions and motions, combined disorders of motility and ptosis, and various 'kinetic' ptoses, which can be defined as motility patterns which do not suit the physiological task of the upper lid. In particular, therapeutic strategies of lid suspensions by means of fresh autogenous fascia lata strips are dealt with: in third nerve palsy, third nerve aberrant regeneration, fibrosis syndrome, advanced myopathy, Marcus-Gunn-lid phenomenon. A curious case of ptosis in downgaze only shows another kinetic feature. The advantage of the sling system is its lasting elasticity which perpetuates a dynamic steady state against the variable active forces of the orbicularis muscle. This facilitates the correction of the position of palsied lidsand still permits the closing of the eye. The slingdampens'kinetic' variations of the width o... |
