Proprioception in Extraocular Muscle
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1963The term proprioception was introduced by Sherrington in 1906. 1 He defined it as a reflex system for the maintenance of body position and coordination of movement, and the means whereby one is conscious of body position. 2,3 The purpose of this paper is to review the anatomical and neurophysiological evidence for proprioception in extraocular muscle ...

Proprioception in Extraocular Muscles
Journal of Neuro-Ophthalmology, 2006Human extraocular muscles are richly endowed with sensory receptors. The precise role of afferent signals derived from these proprioceptors in ocular motor control and spatial localization has been the subject of considerable debate for more than a century.

Disinserted Extraocular Muscles
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1975In two patients, a muscle that slipped from the globe posteriorly created the clinical pattern of reduced rotation amplitude, reduced saccadic velocity, reduced active force, and increasing exophthalmos with gaze into the field of action of the muscle.

Extraocular Muscle Transplantation
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 19771. The transplantation of extraocular homografts in dogs and humans has been described. 2. The extraocular muscle tissue transplanted remains viable, but loses its characteristics of muscle tissue during the period of the normal healing process following extraocular muscle surgery. 3.

Review of extraocular muscle biopsies and utility of biopsy in extraocular muscle enlargement
British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2018AimsTo review the distribution of pathology in extraocular muscle (EOM) biopsies performed at a tertiary orbital centre, identify clinical and imaging features which are associated with benign or malignant diseases and indicate when biopsy is necessary for EOM enlargement.MethodsRetrospective case series including 93 patients with EOM enlargement who ...

The Extraocular Muscles and Their Actions
1972Apart from its importance in the treatment of squint, an adequate knowledge of the movements of the eyes, and their neuromuscular control, is of considerable value in understanding the physiological mechanisms concerned with the maintenance of posture; moreover, it would seem that our perceptions of objects, and particularly of their spatial ...

Extraocular Muscle Enlargement in Acromegaly
Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1982AbstractA review of 10 cases of acromegaly studied by computed tomography to evaluate pituitary adenomas has demonstrated diffuse, significant enlargement of the extraocular muscles in eight patients.

Anatomy of the Extraocular Muscles
2019The extraocular muscles have a complex anatomical structure that includes an insertion from the tendinous ring of zinn or the orbital walls and insertion on the globe. They are linked intimately with fascia which forms the pulley system that supports their action.

Whereas skeletal muscles generally perform specific limited roles, extraocular muscles (EOMs) have to be responsive over a wider dynamic range. As a result, EOMs have fundamentally distinct structural, functional, biochemical, and immunological properties as compared to other skeletal muscles. At birth, the extraocular muscles are at approximately 50 %

Nebulin isoforms of extraocular muscle
Cell and Tissue Research, 2006The extraocular muscles (EOMs), which are responsible for reflexive and voluntary eye movements, have many unique biochemical, physiological, and ultrastructural features that set them apart from other skeletal muscles. For example, rodent EOMs lack M-lines and express EOM-specific myosin heavy chain (MYH13) and alpha-cardiac myosin heavy chain. Recent
