Isolated sixth nerve palsy
An isolated sixth nerve palsy may be a harbinger of underlying intracranial disease. Due to its long subarachnoid course, it may be damaged by downward shift of the brainstem as often occurs in increased or decreased intracranial pressure (“false-localizing sixth nerve palsy”). Alternatively, the sixth nerve may be involved in isolation by a compressive lesion in the cavernous sinus or along th...
متن کاملPlasmacytoma of the Clivus Presenting as Bilateral Sixth Nerve Palsy
Background and Importance Plasmacytomas are monoclonal proliferations of plasma cells that may arise within soft tissue or bone. The skull base is a rare site for plasmacytomas to occur, and few cases have been reported in the literature. When present in the skull base, plasmacytomas may result in cranial neuropathies and often progress to multiple myeloma more rapidly than other intracranial o...
متن کاملIsolated sixth nerve palsy from pontine infarct.
Isolated sixth nerve palsy associated with pontine infarct is very rare due to close anatomic organization of the structures. A 62-year-old woman, who complained of diplopia, had a diagnosis of sixth nerve palsy. Ophthalmological examination revealed 30 PD left esotropia in primary position with limited abduction of the left eye. Neurologic examination was normal. MR showed a lacunar infarct in...
متن کاملEndovascular Treatment for a Persistent Trigeminal Artery Aneurysm Presenting as Isolated Sixth Nerve Palsy
embryological vascular remnants (1). The most common embryonic communication between the carotid and vertebrobasilar systems is a persistent trigeminal artery (PTA). This has been observed in 0.1 -0.2 % of cerebral angiograms, usually as an incidental finding (2). Although the presence of PTA is generally thought to be of uncertain significant, these arteries and their variants have been identi...
متن کاملCryptococcal Meningitis Presenting with Isolated Sixth Cranial Nerve Palsy in a Patient with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Cryptococcal meningitis is a rare complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The nonspecific neurologic findings associated with this infection delays accurate diagnosis because initial neuropsychiatric manifestations of SLE are in instances indistinguishable from that of crytococcal meningitis. We report a case of cryptococcal meningitis presenting with unilateral sixth cranial nerve ...
