[Aberrant reinnervation after oculomotor palsy with involvement of the ciliary muscle (author's transl)].
The clinical and electromyographic signs of the misdirection syndrome after oculomotor palsy are described. Besides the previously described findings we found an increase of intraocular pressure dependent on the direction of gaze. In three young patients (16-26 years), we were able to demonstrate an aberrant reinnervation of the ciliary muscle, which was responsible for an increasing myopia in adduction. These observations supplement the previous concept of the misdirection syndrome.
