Ophthalmoplegic migraine and aberrant regeneration of the oculomotor nerve.
A patient with ophthalmoplegic migraine developed aberrant regeneration of the oculomotor nerve. This finding supports the view that the oculomotor nerve lesion in ophthalmoplegic migraine is peripheral, but its rarity suggests that the underlying mechanism may be ischaemic rather than compression by an oedematous intracavernous internal carotid artery.
متن کاملEthmoidal Mucocele Presenting as Oculomotor Nerve Paralysis
A 56-year-old male was admitted with an acute headache and sudden ptosis on the right side. No ophthalmological or neurological etiologies were apparent. A mucocele of the right posterior ethmoid sinus was observed with radiology. After the marsupialization of the mucocele via a transnasal endoscopic approach, the patient's symptoms (oculomotor nerve paralysis and headache) resolved in 4 weeks....
متن کاملMyofibroma in the Palm Presenting with Median Nerve Compression Symptoms
SUMMARY A myofibroma is a benign proliferation of myofibroblasts in the connective tissue. Solitary myofibromas are a rare finding especially in an adult. We report a case of a 23-year-old man presenting with an enlarging mass over his right palm. The patient is an active weight lifter.

متن کاملFrontal sinus mucocele presenting as oculomotor nerve palsy.
A frontal mucocele is an epithelium-lined, mucuscontaining cyst filling in the frontal sinus. It is capable of expansion to erode the surrounding structures, which may result in severe complications such as orbital infection or intracranial lesions. The clinical presentation of frontal mucoceles includes frontal headache, swelling of the upper eyelid, and ophthalmic symptoms, such as proptosis ...
متن کاملIsolated hypoglossal nerve palsy caused by neurovascular compression.
An 80-year-old man presented with difficulty in swallowing and speaking which had progressed over one year. Neurological examination revealed right hypoglossal nerve palsy with ipsilateral atrophy (Picture A). Laryngoscopic examination was unremarkable. Slowly progressive dysarthria and dysphagia with tongue atrophy initially indicated motor neuron disease (MND), but needle electromyographic ex...
