Diplopia, Third Nerve Palsies, and Sixth Nerve Palsies
Ocular motor defi cits are common clinical manifestations of neurological emergencies, with third (oculomotor) and sixth (abducens) paresis among the most frequent. This chapter focuses on recognition, diagnosis, and treatment of these cranial neuropathies in true neurological emergencies that carry a high risk of major morbidity or mortality if left undiagnosed. Emergencies discussed include a...
متن کاملA cliniconeuroradiologic approach to third cranial nerve palsies.
Sixty-three patients with third cranial nerve palsies (CNPs), either isolated (31) or in association with other neurologic deficits (32), underwent neuroophthalmologic and neuroradiologic evaluation. Discrepancies between the clinical and radiologic evaluations were analyzed and useful clinical presenting symptoms were identified. Microvascular infarction secondary to diabetes mellitus and/or h...
متن کاملThird, Fourth, and Sixth Cranial Nerve Palsies in Pituitary Apoplexy.
BACKGROUND Pituitary apoplexy (PA) often presents with acute headache and neuro-ophthalmic manifestations, including ocular motility dysfunction (OMD) from cranial nerve palsies (CNPs). Our goal was to describe the epidemiology and outcomes of OMD in a large, single-center series of patients with PA. METHODS We conducted a retrospective chart review of all patients with PA seen in our pituita...
متن کاملMedian Nerve Palsies due to Injections: A Review
Injection nerve palsy (INP) in the median nerve is an iatrogenic peripheral nerve injury that can be inflicted by a faulty intramuscular injection in the median nerve area. The literature reports a 2% incidence of INP among all peripheral nerve injuries. The incidence of INP in developed countries has decreased significantly during the past decade, but the injury appears to remain prevalent in ...
متن کاملC5 Nerve root palsies following cervical spine surgery: A review
BACKGROUND Cervical C5 nerve root palsies may occur in between 0% and 30% of routine anterior or posterior cervical spine operations. They are largely attributed to traction injuries/increased cord migration following anterior/posterior decompressions. Of interest, almost all studies cite spontaneous resolution of these deficits without surgery with 3-24 postoperative months. METHODS Differen...
