  1. Vertical diplopia after acoustic neuroma surgery and Botox injection for protective ptosis Elaine Wong Lionel Kowal

  2. YH 37 yo F PMHx • Left acoustic neuroma • Excision of acoustic neuroma 05/2005 • Left facial nerve palsy with exposure keratopathy • Left upper lid botox (10U) to induce protective ptosis • Once botox worn off - noticed vertical diplopia

  3. YH 37 yo F 12/2005 • VAR 6/8 VAL 6/18 • R hypertropia 32 24 40 40 28 40 14 • XT 15 • LIO --- • LIR tight [thru- the- lid - forced- duction - test] • L fundus extorted

  4. YH 37 yo F 03/2006 • Had Acupuncture treatment • Feels diplopia has improved • R hypertropia 20 10 37 29 15 33 20 • Exotropia 4Δ • Single vision in primary and for 15˚ on upgaze and right gaze • L SO ++,L IO --

  5. YH 37 yo F Diagnosis • ? Permanent Botox induced vertical misalignment • ? Skew deviation following acoustic neuroma surgery

  6. Discussion Persisting hypotropias following protective ptosis induced by botulinum neurotoxin PL Heyworth, JP Lee Eye 1994; 8 (pt 5): 511-5 • 3 case reports of permanent superior rectus weakness and vertical deviation • Require surgical correction • ? Prolonged occlusion led to breakdown of fusion • ? Contracture of ipsilateral IR

  7. Discussion Skew deviation following vestibular nerve surgery P Riordan-Eva, JP Harcourt, M Faldon, GB Brookes, MA Gresty Annual of Neurology 1997 Jan; 41(1); 94-9 • 5/18 patients develop vertical deviation following surgery • 3 with manifest vertical deviation • 1 with unilateral Meniere’s, 1 with bilateral Meniere’s and 1 with acoustic neuroma • Diplopia lasted from 1 day to 6 months • Surgical vestibular deafferentation
