Historically, unilateral deficit of gaze elevation had been attributed to the lack of action of the superior rectus and inferior oblique ipsolateral muscles (called "double paralysis of elevators"), which would be a disorder of supranuclear origin<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2–4</span></a>. However, the syndrome was extended with other subtypes responding to primary and isolated paresis of the upper rectus, or to congenital fibrosis of the lower rectus<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1–4</span></a>. Contracture of the lower rectus, in some cases, may also be secondary to hypoaction of the upper rectus in the context of MEDS<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>.</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Clinically, MEDS is characterized by the inability to elevate the affected eye, both in adduction and abduction, and there may be an associated horizontal deviation<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>.

The eye with the elevation deficit may also exhibit ptosis due to possible adhesions of the upper rectus with the upper eyelid elevator, but in cases where it disappears with the fixation of that eye it would be a pseudoptosis2. Amblyopia would be present in deviations of long evolution (from childhood), generally with associated ptosis or anisometropia2. Vertical diplopia would be more typical of cases acquired in adulthood, sometimes accompanied by a compensatory posture of chin elevation<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>.

In children, correct refraction of the affected eye and treatment of amblyopia, if any, is essential<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>,3. The main surgical indications are significant deviation in pgp, diplopia in pgp, abnormal head position or amblyopia induced by vertical deviation<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>. The surgical objectives are primarily to improve the alignment of the eye in pgp and to increase the binocular field of vision<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>. In the presence of paresis of the upper rectus, the surgical technique of choice is Knapp-type muscle transposition<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a>. According to the series described, the average correction of hypotropia obtained is very variable and even unpredictable, since it can range from 21.1 to 38 DP<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> and with a tendency to hypercorrection in time<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a>. Furthermore, this procedure must be preceded by an ipsolateral rectal recession, provided that a restriction of the lower rectus is determined by means of a passive duction test. This restriction could be present in up to 70–83% of patients<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a>. Anterior segment ischemia is a possible complication when both procedures are performed simultaneously, but there are cases described 4 months apart<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a>. On the other hand, some authors recommend not exceeding 4–5<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm of lower rectal recession to avoid hypertrophy in gaze depression or lower eyelid retraction<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a>. Therefore, in hypotropies <15-20 PD it might be useful to combine it simultaneously with contralateral upper rectal recession for inervation purposes<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a>. Our patient presented a large contracture of the lower rectus so it was retro-inserted 4<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>mm and, as the hypotropia was >20 PD, a technique of muscle replacement of the upper rectus had to be performed as well.</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The Nishida technique<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> was originally described for the correction of endotropy caused by VI pair paresis and consists in the transposition of the temporal margins of the vertical lines by suturing them to the upper and lower sclera. In this way, a significant abductive action is obtained by displacing the temporal portion of the muscular bellies of the vertical lines, avoiding disinsertions and partitions<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a>. The use of this modified technique had only been reported by Murthy and Pappuru<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0025"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">5</span></a> for 3 children with MEDS in 2018, achieving a correction of 30 PD of hypotropia in one of the cases and 40 PD in the other 2, when it was combined with recession of the lower rectus. This variant of Nishida's technique for MEDS is easier to perform than Knapp-type substitution, since neither tenotomies nor muscle partitions are required. In our case, it proved to be effective in correcting 25 PD of vertical deviation combined with lower rectal recession and also safe in minimizing the risk of anterior segment ischemia. The patient presented here would be the first reported case of an adult patient.</p></span><span id="sec0020" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0040">Financing</span><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This work has not received any funding.</p></span><span id="sec0025" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0045">Conflict of interests</span><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">None of the authors of this manuscript have any conflict of interest.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:10 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1583669" "titulo" => "Abstract" "secciones" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "identificador" => "abst0005" ] ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1425297" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1583668" "titulo" => "Resumen" "secciones" => array:1 [ 0 => array:1 [ "identificador" => "abst0010" ] ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1425296" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Introduction" ] 5 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Clinic case report" ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Financing" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Conflict of interests" ] 9 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2020-05-11" "fechaAceptado" => "2020-09-02" "PalabrasClave" => array:2 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1425297" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Elevation deficiency" 1 => "Nishida’s procedure" 2 => "Hypotropia" 3 => "Inferior rectus" 4 => "Ptosis" ] ] ] "es" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1425296" "palabras" => array:5 [ 0 => "Déficit de la elevación" 1 => "Técnica de Nishida" 2 => "Hipotropia" 3 => "Recto inferior" 4 => "Ptosis" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:2 [ "en" => array:2 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<span id="abst0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><p id="spar0025" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">Monocular elevation deficiency (MED) is characterized by unilateral limitation of supraductions, similar in adduction and abduction, in addition to hypotropia and ptosis.
