چکیده
Superior oblique myokymia should be suspected in patients complaining of brief, recurrent episodes of monocular oscillopsia or blurred vision. Less often, patients complain of paroxysmal vertical or torsional diplopia. The abnormal eye movements are often difficult to appreciate but spasms of torsional-vertical rotation were seen easily in this patient. This case is not typical because the attacks usually last less than 10 sec. MRI shows no lesion in most cases, although neurovascular compression at the root entry zone has been reported.1

In 3 of them, different types of nystagmus were found, including upbeat, downbeat, and central form of vestibular nystagmus. One developed opsoclonus-myoclonus syndrome. Three patients had neuromyelitis optica antibodies, and 3 had brainstem abnormalities detected on MRI. Two patien...

متن کاملPipeline embolization device: a new source for embolic retinal vascular occlusion.
A 57-year-old woman underwent treatment of a left internal carotid artery aneurysm with a Pipeline embolization device. She subsequently experienced multiple branch retinal artery occlusions in her left eye. Although rare, ophthalmic complications may follow this new technique in the treatment of intracranial aneurysms.
