PURPOSE: Frontalis brow suspension, using stored donor fascia lata, allows early correction of severe @entity3065 . We report longterm results of 18 @entity1 , (29 ptotic eyelids). METHODS: @entity1 records were retrospectively reviewed. Lid position at the first and subsequent post-operative visits was recorded, as was the time when @entity1736 recurred. RESULTS: The mean follow-up period was 42.9 months (range 7 to 84 months). All @entity1 achieved a Good initial result. Partial @entity1736 recurrence was noted in 7 @entity1 (10 eyelids), within 18 months of surgery. One of these @entity1 required reoperation. Lid position did not change after the first 18 months. No late failures were encountered. CONCLUSION: Longterm lid position is remarkably stable after early surgical correction of severe @entity3065 using stored fascia lata.
