Trial summary

This prospective comparative study aims to compare medial rectus (MR) muscle fenestration and recession in patients with partially accommodative esotropia (PAET). The main question it aims to answer is whether MR fenestration is equally effective as MR recession for PAET. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Medial Rectus Muscle Fenestration Versus Medial Rectus Recession for Partially Accommodative Esotropia

This prospective comparative study aims to compare medial rectus (MR) muscle fenestration and recession in patients with partially accommodative esotropia (PAET). The main question it aims to answer is whether MR fenestration is equally effective as MR recession for PAET.

All patients will receive complete ophthalmic and orthoptic assessment. Patients will be randomly allocated using a random table to one of two groups; Group 1 will receive conventional MR recession, and Group 2 will receive MR fenestration.

Read the detailed description

Inclusion criteria The study will include patients with accommodative esotropia if the residual distance deviation with full cycloplegic correction is > 15PD.

Exclusion criteria:

  1. Patients with convergence excess esotropia, defined as a near deviation with glasses exceeding that for distance by 15 PD or more.
  2. Patients with paralytic or restrictive strabismus.
  3. Patients with previous strabismus surgery
  4. Patients with neurologic, ocular, or developmental disorders or follow-up less than 6 months

All patients will receive complete ophthalmic and orthoptic assessment including:

  1. A full ophthalmological assessment including history taking, measurement of uncorrected and best-corrected visual acuity, cycloplegic refraction, anterior segment examination, as well as a dilated fundus examination. ii) Measurement of the deviation at distance (6 m) and near (33 cm). iii) Assessment of ductions and versions in all cardinal directions of gaze

Patients will be randomly allocated using a random table to one of two groups:

  1. Group 1: Unilateral or bilateral conventional MR recession. Augmented formula will be used to decide the Surgical dosage using the standard tables (3)
  2. Group 2: unilateral or bilateral MR fenestration All surgeries will be performed by one experienced surgeon (H.SH)
Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • medial rectus fenestrationProcedure or surgery

    Fenestration technique involves making two splitting incisions by blunt dissection parallel to the muscle fibers on the superior and inferior borders of the muscle, leaving 1 mm of muscle fibers on each edge. The rectangular wide central part is excised from the insertion and between the two splitting incisions to a point back 5-8 mm depending on the angle of the esotropia.

  • medial rectus recessionProcedure or surgery

    recession is one of the gold standard weakening procedures that involves disinsertion of the muscle and re-suturing to the sclera at a more posterior location to decrease its contractile power.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Ocular alignment (measured in prism diopters)

    The distance and near angles of deviation, with and without glasses, and the angle disparity

    Measured: 6 months postoperative

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. ocular motility

    ductions of both eyes (graded on a scale of nine points from -4 to +4)

    Measured: 6 months postoperative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing medial rectus fenestration and medial rectus recession in people with Partially Accommodative Esotropia, run by Mansoura University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ameera G Abdelhameed, MD (+201120090000, amiragamal287@mans.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Ocular alignment (measured in prism diopters) (time frame: 6 months postoperative). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Mar 2024.
