Résumé
This case report describes a novel surgical technique using an inferior oblique muscle flap for a patient requiring complex ocular surface reconstruction. A 63-year-old female with Stevens-Johnson syndrome and complex ocular history including multiple penetrating keratoplasties and keratoprostheses presented with recurrent keratoprosthesis implant plate necrosis. In conjunction with revision keratoplasty, a custom inferior oblique muscle flap was designed to provide improved support and vascularity to the corneal tissue bed; at 12 months postoperation, the graft remained well attached and free of graft failure. Here, we present this technique along with operative photos, describing how this technique may provide surgeons an additional option for complex ocular surface reconstruction.
