[Congenital blepharoptosis. Diagnosis and treatment].
The congenital blepharoptosis is the most frequent palpebral abnormality. The anatomical, physiological and clinical aspects of the congenital blepharoptosis are successively discussed. Clinical and anatomopathological studies support the hypothesis of a myogenic basis for congenital genuine blepharoptosis and the hypothesis of a neurogenic basis for the ptosis with synkinetic phenomena. The different surgical methods are then described and their results compared.
