Saethre-Chotzen syndrome is a very rare congenital syndrome characterized by craniosynostosis. The incidence of it is around 1: 50,000 live births. Intelligence is usually normal, but a few affected individuals may have mild to moderate mental retardation. Children with Saethre-Chotzen syndrome should be evaluated by members of an experienced interdisciplinary team as treatment usually involves many different specialities. The strabismus surgery in these patients is difficult, because they usually have anomalous insertion and misdirection of the extraocular muscles. Imaging techniques are recommended in order to investigate the anatomical aspects of the extraocular muscles and their insertions.
