In two cases of 3rd nerve palsy and trochlear palsy we performed a new transposition procedure. This procedure consists of splitting of the lateral rectus muscle and transposition of the upper half to a retroequatorial point near the nasal superior vortex vein. The lower half is transposed to a retroequatorial point near the nasal inferior vortex vein. In the first case we linked the two halves with fascia late. The horizontal deviation was diminished by 15-20 degrees.

D009801	Oculomotor Muscles	The muscles that move the eye. Included in this group are the medial rectus, lateral rectus, superior rectus, inferior rectus, inferior oblique, superior oblique, musculus orbitalis, and levator palpebrae superioris.

D009886	Ophthalmoplegia	Paralysis of one or more of the ocular muscles due to disorders of the eye muscles, neuromuscular junction, supporting soft tissue, tendons, or innervation to the muscles.

D005099	Exotropia	A form of ocular misalignment where the visual axes diverge inappropriately. For example, medial rectus muscle weakness may produce this condition as the affected eye will deviate laterally upon attempted forward gaze. An exotropia occurs due to the relatively unopposed force exerted on the eye by the lateral rectus muscle, which pulls the eye in an outward direction.

D014321	Trochlear Nerve	The 4th cranial nerve. The trochlear nerve carries the motor innervation of the superior oblique muscles of the eye.

D015840	Oculomotor Nerve Diseases	Diseases of the oculomotor nerve or nucleus that result in weakness or paralysis of the superior rectus, inferior rectus, medial rectus, inferior oblique, or levator palpebrae muscles, or impaired parasympathetic innervation to the pupil. With a complete oculomotor palsy, the eyelid will be paralyzed, the eye will be in an abducted and inferior position, and the pupil will be markedly dilated. Commonly associated conditions include neoplasms, CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA, ischemia (especially in association with DIABETES MELLITUS), and aneurysmal compression.
