| pubmed-article:3446539 | pubmed:abstractText | Scleral penetration with a suture needle is a well recognised risk of the surgical treatment of strabismus and may result in serious intra-ocular complications. The risk should be reduced by loop recession, a procedure derived from the adjustable suture technique. In practice in many cases this operation has also been found to have other advantages compared to a conventional recession. The surgical details of loop recession are described and the results obtained in 62 patients reviewed. | lld:pubmed |
