A ptosis repair of aponeurotic defects by the posterior approach.
AUTOR(ES)
Collin, J R
RESUMO
A simple posterior approach operation for correcting ptosis due to a disinsertion of the aponeurosis of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle is presented. Müller's muscle is restored to its normal length. Pull-out sutures are used which give some postoperative control of eyelid level and allow the procedure to be done under general anaesthesia if required.
