Morphometry of the Trochlear Nerve and Superior Oblique Muscle Volume in Congenital Superior Oblique Palsy [Eye Movement, Strabismus, Amblyopia, and Neuro-Ophthalmology]

Conclusions. In congenital SOP patients without a trochlear nerve, the nonparetic side CN4D was also reduced in contrast to those with a trochlear nerve. The relatively weaker relationship of CN4D and nonparetic side SO volume in the absent group than that of the present group suggests different pathogenic mechanisms underlying these two entities of congenital SOP.
