ABSTRACT
Objective: Identify the clinical characteristics of and surgical criteria for Brown syndrome.
Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted of 15 patients diagnosed with Brown syndrome attending the binocular vision service at Dr. Antonio María Béguez César South University Children's Hospital. The sample included children aged 2-7 years with a definite diagnosis of Brown syndrome. Complete motor and sensory exploration was done, and evaluation was performed of the affected eye, Brown syndrome type, clinical characteristics and surgical criteria considered to select the appropriate management.
Results: 66.5 % of the study sample had their right eye affected by mild Brown syndrome, 73 % were orthotropic, and 73.3 % were not surgical cases.
Conclusion: Patients with mild Brown syndrome who remained orthotropic, without torticollis or adduction depression, did not require surgical intervention.
