Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Brown syndrome is characterized by restricted elevation in adduction. Congenital Brown syndrome usually is diagnosed during early childhood. It is believed to be caused by an abnormality of the superior oblique tendon as it passes through the trochlea. The natural history of Brown syndrome is poorly characterized. Many patients with congenital Brown syndrome undergo strabismus surgery during childhood in an attempt to correct the problem surgically. This report describes spontaneous regression of congenital Brown syndrome in an adult.
