Congenital Brown's syndrome: clinical and surgical approach.
Brown's syndrome is a well-recognized clinical disorder of ocular motility consisting mainly of a restriction of active and passive elevation in adduction. We report a series of 17 patients with true Brown's syndrome and discuss the clinical features and results of surgical intervention. Surgery should be considered carefully for the treatment of this syndrome as reoperation may be necessary and spontaneous resolution is seen during long-term follow-up of some patients.
