[Brown syndrome. General considerations. Case report].

This is an overview of a few general aspects of Brown's syndrome followed by a case report of a three year old girl suffering from congenital Brown's syndrome, astigmatism and amblyopia, which was detected by an ophthalmological screening at her kindergarten. The main differential diagnosis is ipsilateral inferior oblique paresis/paralysis. Since this was a mild-degree syndrome, it didn't require surgery only optical treatement and follow-up.
