[Operative treatment of Duane's syndrome associated with extreme vertical divergence (author's transl)].

In following an operative treatment of Daune's-Syndrome associated with extreme vertical divergence is described. During operation the external rectus muscle is recessed and inserted lower due to anatomical anomalies. This is performed by a little known method described by A. B. Scott. Our results are very satisfactory. Psychical alterations associated with these disorders also could be sucessfully managed.
