RESUMO

We report the case of a 38-year-old man with abducens palsy following a traumatic skull injury who failed multiple strabismus surgeries. A suture-armed 5 mm micro bone screw was placed on the anterior face of the lateral orbital rim and used to tether and abduct the globe. The patient remained orthotropic in primary position 12 months postoperatively.
