Neuroparalytic keratopathy in Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome treated with tarsoconjunctival flap.

Stüve-Wiedemann syndrome is a rare bone dysplasia with dysautonomic manifestations. Most patients die in the neonatal period or during infancy because of the multiple complications they present. The main ophthalmological complications reported are reduced corneal reflex, corneal anesthesia, hypolacrimation, and severely reduced blinking. We are going to present the first tarsoconjunctival flap in a Stüve-Wiedemann patient, the surgery, and the results in a 13-year-old patient that came to our hospital because of severe corneal ulceration.
