To quantify the fat in the levator muscle of patients with congenital ptosis, as related to clinical and epidemiological aspects of this disease.
Twenty-two levator muscle samples of the superior eyelid from patients with congenital ptosis were morphometrically evaluated with aim of establishing a relationship between the fat quantity and age, sex, ptosis degree and levator muscle function.
According to our results the fat in the levator muscle of patients with congenital ptosis is not related to gender or epidemiologic aspects.
Fat amount in the levator muscle from congenital ptosis is not related to age, sex, ptosis degree or levator muscle function. Other studies will be necessary to show the real alterations in the levator muscle related to eyelid ptosis.
量化先天性上睑下垂患者提上睑肌中的脂肪,并将其与该疾病的临床和流行病学方面相关联。
对22例先天性上睑下垂患者的上睑提上睑肌样本进行形态计量学评估,旨在确定脂肪量与年龄、性别、上睑下垂程度和提上睑肌功能之间的关系。
根据我们的结果,先天性上睑下垂患者提上睑肌中的脂肪与性别或流行病学方面无关。
先天性上睑下垂患者提上睑肌中的脂肪量与年龄、性别、上睑下垂程度或提上睑肌功能无关。需要进行其他研究以揭示与上睑下垂相关的提上睑肌的实际改变。
