Intervention
Outcome measures
Primary outcome
Proportion of successful motor alignment at six months. This will be measured with a synoptophore. Successful alignment is defined as ¡Ü ¡À10 prism diopters of residual esotropia at 6 months.
Secondary outcome
1. Degree of esotropia (prism diopters);
2. Time of onset esotropia;
3. Measurement of binocularity: alignment & fusion;
4. Percentages and duration of ptosis and exotropia (temporary side effects of botulinum injection);
5. Percentages of reinjection and additional alignment surgery;
6. BCVA at each visit and amblyopia;
7. Occurrence of vertical disturbances of ocular motility;
8. Adverse events.
Background summary
Rationale:
In comparison to standard strabism surgery in patients with infantile esotropia, bilateral injection of Botox in the medial rectus muscle is conjectured to be equivalent with respect to motor alignment, while burden and risk are (because less invasive) expected to be less.
Objective:
To determine the proportion of successful alignment after treatment of infantile esotropia with Botox.
Study design:
Prospective case series.
Study population:
Infantile esotropia < 6 years of age.
Intervention:
Bilateral injection of Botox in the medial rectus muscle.
Main study parameters/endpoints:
Proportion of successful motor alignment at six months.
Nature and extent of the burden and risks associated with participation, benefit and group relatedness:
As an alternative to conventional strabism surgery, treatment with Botox may be equally effective while both burden and risk are anticipated to be reduced.
Study objective
The proportion of successful alignment after treatment of infantile esotropia with Botox is not inferior to conventional strabism surgery.
Study design
Preoperatively, postoperatively at 2 and 10 weeks, at 6 months and at 1 and 2 years.
Intervention
Bilateral injection of Botox in the medial rectus muscle.
