Five new strabismus surgical procedures were developed by the authors and were presented as a workshop at the AAPOS annual meeting of the American Association for Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus. They are summarized here to introduce these methods to the reader and provide surgeons with more options in approaching difficult strabismus problems. Diagnosis and correction of consecutive strabismus attributable to stretched scar is discussed. The pulley posterior fixation procedure is a unique approach to correct high accommodative convergence or to augment a maximal medial rectus recession. Diagnosis and repair of the partial avulsion (flap tear) of a rectus muscle allows correction of some restrictive strabismus following blunt trauma. The nasal myectomy of the inferior oblique muscle corrects persistent inferior oblique overaction without sacrificing the tether effect gained by a previous anterior transposition of the inferior oblique. The full advancement of the superior oblique tendon offers another option to strengthen a weak superior oblique muscle. (J AAPOS 2013;17:79-88)
