Abstract

Özet
Amaç: Levator fonksiyonu kötü doğumsal üst göz kapağı düşüklüğünde Whitnall askılama ameliyatı uyguladığımız hastaların klinik özelliklerini ve cerrahi sonuçlarını sunmak.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Haseki Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi’nde 2003-2005 yıllarında Whitnall askı cerrahisi uygulanan 11 hastanın 15 gözü çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların dördü kadın, yedisi erkek olup, yaşları 5 ile 40 yıl arasındaydı. Göz kapağı düşüklüğü dışında sistemik ve oküler patolojileri olanlar çalışmaya alınmadı. Tüm hastalarda anterior yaklaşımla kapak kıvrım insizyonu ile Whitnall askı cerrahisi uygulandı. Üst göz kapağı konturunun düzenli olması ve kapak çizgisinin simetrik olması şartıyla, sonuçlar tam düzelme ve bir milimetreden (mm) az kapak düşüklüğü olanlarda ‘başarılı’, 1-2 mm kapak düşüklüğü olanlarda ‘tatminkâr’, iki mm den daha fazla kapak düşüklüğü olanlarda ise ‘başarısız’ olarak değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Ameliyat sonrası 6. ayda hiçbir hastada kapak kontür düzensizliği ve enfeksiyon gibi komplikasyonlar izlenmedi. Bir hastada iki mm’den fazla kapak düşüklüğü olması nedeniyle sonuç başarısız kabul edildi. Bir hasta ise 1-2 mm arasında kapak düşüklüğü olmasına rağmen optik aks açık olduğu için sonuç tatminkâr olarak değerlendirildi. Dokuz hastanın 13 gözünde (%86.7) ise bir mm’nin altında kapak düşüklüğü vardı ve sonuç başarılı olarak değerlendirildi.
Sonuç: Kötü levator fonksiyonlu hastalarda Whitnall askı cerrahisi başarı oranı yüksek ve komplikasyon oranı düşük bir tekniktir. Uzun dönem sonuçlar için karşılaştırmalı geniş serili prospektif çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.

Our Results of Whitnall Sling Surgery in Patients With Congenital Myogenic Ptosis

Abstract

Abstract
Objective: To present the clinical features and surgical results of patients who underwent Whitnall sling surgery in congenital upper eyelid ptosis with poor levator function.
Material and Methods: Fifteen eyes of 11 patients who underwent Whitnall sling surgery in Haseki Education and Research Hospital between 2003-2005 were included in the study. Four of the patients were women and seven were men, and their ages were between 5 and 40 years. Those with systemic and ocular pathologies other than droopy eyelids were excluded from the study. Whitnall sling surgery was performed with an anterior approach. Provided that the upper
eyelid contour was regular and the lid line was symmetrical, the results in those with complete correction and upper eyelid drooping of less than one millimeter (mm) were considered ‘successful’, in those with 1-2 mm upper eyelid drooping were considered ‘satisfactory’, and in those with upper eyelid drooping two mm were considered ‘unsuccessful’.
Results: Complications such as upper eyelid contour irregularity and infection were not observed. In one patient the result was considered unsuccessful because of more than two mm ptosis. On the other hand, in one patient the result was considered satisfactory because the optic axis was open despite the 1 to 2 mm ptosis. Thirteen eyes of 9 patients (86.7%) had lower than 1 mm ptosis and the result was considered successful.
Conclusion: Whitnall sling surgery is a technique with a high success rate and low complication in patients with poor levator function. Prospective studies are needed for long-term results.
