Abstract

Centurion syndrome is a rare medial canthal tendon insertion anomaly that causes epiphora in young adults. The purpose of the current study is to describe the clinical signs and outcome of surgery in a 18-year-old male patient with Centurion syndrome. Ophthalmic examination revealed bilateral loss of lid globe apposition medially, with anterior displacement of the lacrimal puncta out of the tear lake and a prominent nasal bridge. The patient, whose findings were consistent with Centurion syndrome, underwent bilateral medial canthal tendon release and medial tarsoconjunctival resection. Tearing was completely resolved after surgery. Anterior medial canthal tendon release with medial conjunctivoplasty is an effective surgical approach in patients with Centurion syndrome.

Özet

Centurion sendromu, genç erişkinlerde epiforaya neden olan bir medial kantal tendon yapışma anomalisidir.Bu çalışmada epifora yakınması ile başvuran ve centurion sendromu tanısı alan bir hastanın klinik özelliklerini ve tedavi sonuçlarını sunmak amaçlanmıştır. 18 yaşındaki erkek hastanın yapılan muayenesinde medialde bilateral glob-kapak apozisyonunun kaybolduğu, gözyaşı gölcüğünden uzaklaşan ve öne doğru yer değiştiren punktumlarla birlikte belirgin burun kökü izlendi. Bulguların Centurion sendromu ile uyumlu bulunduğu hastaya, bilateral medial kantal tendon serbestleştirilmesi ve medial tarsokonjonktival rezeksiyon girişimi uygulandı. Cerrahi sonrasında hastanın sulanma yakınmaları tamamiyle geriledi. Centurion sendromlu olgularda medial kantal tendon ön bacağının serbestleştirilmesi ve medial tarsokonjonktival rezeksiyon etkin bir cerrahi yaklaşımdır. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2012; 42: 243-5)
