Description
Emine Seker Un, Osman Parca and Tunahan Akyol report a surgical series for fat adherence syndrome, in work published in 2026. The syndrome is a rare cause of restrictive strabismus after inferior oblique surgery. Seven patients treated between 2016 and 2022 had downward eye deviation, limited upward movement and a positive forced duction test.
Surgery released dense adhesions, recessed tissue and added an amniotic membrane transplant. All patients improved in alignment and movement, and six of seven met the set success target. Double vision and odd head posture cleared where present, with no major complications over follow-up. The authors say larger prospective studies are needed to pin down the membrane's own contribution.
