Strabismus and meningomyelocele

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1981
About a half of a group of patients with meningomyelocele have some form of squint. The occurrence of squint appears to be related to the occurrence of hydrocephalus. The incidence of squint increases with the existence of epileptic symptoms and with a low level of intelligence. Amblyopia is seldom seen in the patients with convergent squint.

Currently, maternal-fetal surgery for repair of myelomeningocele requires an upper-segment hysterotomy, which likely increases maternal postsurgical risks. If fetoscopic repair of myelomeningocele achieves similar or better fetal outcomes while decreasing maternal risks, it would be a better option.A patient with a fetus with a L3-S1 meningomyelocele ...
