Mobius syndrome (MIM no. 157900) consists of a congenital paresis or paralysis of the VIIth cranial nerve, frequently accompanied by paralysis of other cranial nerves, orofacial and limb malformations, defects of the musculoskeletal system and mental retardation. Although most patients are sporadic cases, familial recurrence is not rare. Different pedigrees

Prostaglandins Use of Misoprostol During Pregnancy and mobius syndrome in Infants. AL Pastuszak, et al (Univ of Toronto; Universidade Federal do http://www.mdbrowse.com/Speciality/obes-gync/Prostaglandins.htm
Extractions: In this study thirty women with normal, intrauterine pregnancies at 8 to 11 weeks' gestation were enrolled. They were given 0.2 or 0.4 mg of misoprostol orally or vaginally. Intrauterine pressure was recorded 30 minutes before misoprostol administration and for 4 hours thereafter. Suction curettage was performed at the end of the recording. Conclusions- After vaginal administration of misoprostol, long-lasting, continuously increasing uterine contractility develops; this can be only partially explained by a direct drug effect. The longer period of increased plasma concentrations of misoprostol may have also initiated the prolonged events, resulting in increased uterine contractility.

Extractions: Table of Contents - This Web Page Duane's Syndrome Brown's Syndrome Mobius Syndrome Sixth Nerve Palsy Duane's Syndrome eye muscle surgery Brown's Syndrome Brown’s syndrome is a condition present from birth or acquired later in life in which the eye is unable to move up, especially when it is turned in toward the nose. This is caused by the inability of the superior oblique muscle, one of the eye muscles, to slide through its natural pulley system along the bony wall of the eye. This condition is often first noted in a child when the parent notes that the uninvolved eye is "floating" up when the child looks to the side, when actually it is the other eye which is not moving up normally. eye muscle surgery can correct the problem. Mobius Syndrome Mobius syndrome is characterized by multiple disturbances of the muscles of the eyes and face. Most notable is the inability of one or both eyes to move outwards. This is often accompanied by eye crossing at birth which often needs to be corrected with eye muscle surgery . The involvement of the nerves that supply the muscles of the face is noted by early difficulty with sucking and feeding, as well as deficient closing of the eyes during sleep. The face can appear like a mask in that the ability to smile or wrinkle the forehead is absent.

Extractions: Front Page Today's Digest Week in Review Email Updates ... Outdoor Living Main Page See live article Mobius syndrome is caused by an abnormal neurodevelopment of the cranial nerves . This is quite a rare disorder and it has a number of different causes. The cranial nerves VI and VII are the most commonly affected nerves. Cranial nerves V and VIII are only affected occasionally. If the cranial nerve VI is affected, the patient will suffer from loss of lateral gaze. If cranial nerve VII is affected, the patient will suffer from bilateral facial palsy i.e. mask-like expressionless face with mouth constantly held open. The patient will suffer from hearing loss if cranial VIII is affected. Infants with this disorder can be identified at birth, by a "mask-like" expression detectable during crying or laughing due to

Extractions: Stanford Report, October 23, 2002 Medical center surgeon gives child reason, not to mention ability, to smile By CAMILLE MOJICA REY Kim was later diagnosed with Mobius syndrome, a condition that causes varying degrees of facial paralysis. Children with the disorder often have trouble controlling their eyelids and cheek muscles. For Chris, now 10, the paralysis meant he was unable to form a normal smile. This kind of inability goes largely unnoticed by a small child. However, most parents are quite distressed by the lack of symmetry. But, as he grew, Chris became aware of his inability to smile normally, which his parents said caused emotional strain. "I heard him praying for fixing his face," Steve Kim said. Prior to surgery and years of therapy, Chris Kim was literally unable to smile. An unusual procedure at the medical center established the nerve and muscle connections he needed to add variety to his expressions. PHOTO: COURTESY OF JAMES CHANG Hope that Chris would someday smile like a normal boy came when the family met James Chang, MD, associate professor of plastic and hand surgery and program director in plastic surgery at Stanford. Chang is one of the few surgeons in California who performs corrective plastic surgery and microsurgery on children with Mobius syndrome.
