Large-angle strabismus and primary true muscle transplantation.

Background: Large-angle strabismus often demands a series of surgeries to achieve satisfactory alignment. This often necessitates bilateral surgery, which patients may be reluctant to undergo.

Methods: Three patients with large-angle esotropia, not amenable to standard recession and resection procedures, underwent primary true muscle transplantation wherein a fragment of resected extraocular muscle was used to elongate the medial rectus muscle.
