Abstract
Case report

Patient with abducens palsy treated with Foster technique after injection of botulinum toxin. Exotropia, adduction limitation, face-turn inversion and diplopia were observed during the post-operative period. He was reinterviened by performing a resection on the medial rectus of the affected and toxin was injected into the lateral rectus, as it was technically impossible to remove the scleral fixation with an acceptable result. Two years later diplopia and increased exotropia reoccurred which again required resection.

Conclusions

The Foster technique is our technique of choice in complete abducens palsy, however it is important to point out that there could be complications, such as overcorrections.

Keywords:
Abducens palsy
Augmented muscle transposition
Scleral fixation
Postsurgical overcorrection
Recurrent exotropia
Resumen
Caso clínico

Paciente con parálisis del VI N tratado con técnica de Foster previa inyección de toxina botulínica. En el postoperatorio se observa exotropia, limitación aducción, inversión del tortícolis y diplopía. Se reinterviene realizando resección del recto medio y toxina en recto lateral del ojo afectado por ser técnicamente imposible retirar la fijación escleral. Se obtiene un resultado aceptable. Dos años después reaparece la diplopía y un aumento de exotropía, por lo que se realiza nueva resección de recto medio.

Conclusiones

La técnica de Foster es nuestra técnica de elección en las parálisis completas del VI; sin embargo, no está exenta de complicaciones como las hipercorrecciones.
