  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We attempted surgical correction of blepharo-phimosis syndrome in a female child at the age of 3 years 11 months and her brother at the age of 3 years 6 months. The condition was characterized by bilateral blepharophimosis, epicanthus inversus and blepharoptosis. The father and the grandfather of the siblings manifested the same condition.

We performed the Mustarde technique for epicanthus inversus and, 6 months later, theFriedenwald-Guyton technique for blepharoptosis. When evaluated 2 years later, the first case showed normal value for the horizontal length of palpebral fissures. The distance between the medial angles was shorter than normal. In the second case, epicanthus inversus persisted in spite of Mustarde technique. Due correction of epicanthus inversus appeared to be a prerequisite for the ensuing eyelid elevating surgery to succeed.
