oculomotor nerve palsy

These cases may be due to brain mass lesions which cause oculomotor nerve palsy.

A complete Oculomotor nerve palsy will result in a characteristic down and out position in the affected eye.

A more rare sign of Kernohan's notch is ipsilateral oculomotor nerve palsy.

Following the loss, Soya was sidelined with a cervical hernia and an oculomotor nerve palsy.

Incyclotorsion may also be used to describe one part of the condition of the eye when a patient has an oculomotor nerve palsy.

Oculomotor nerve palsy If the aneurysm is in cavernous sinus, the symptoms are:

Oculomotor nerve palsy is an eye condition resulting from damage to the third cranial nerve or a branch thereof.

The ptosis seen in Horner's syndrome is of a lesser degree than is seen with an oculomotor nerve palsy.

Paralysis of the oculomotor nerve, i.e., oculomotor nerve palsy, can arise due to:

Anisocoria which is greater in bright light suggests Adie tonic pupil, pharmacologic dilation, Oculomotor nerve palsy, or damaged iris.

Oculomotor nerve palsy - Oculomotor nerve (III)

Weber's syndrome (superior alternating hemiplegia) is a form of stroke characterized by the presence of an oculomotor nerve palsy and contralateral hemiparesis or hemiplegia.

In people with diabetes and older than 50 years of age, an oculomotor nerve palsy, in the classical sense, occurs with sparing (or preservation) of the pupillary reflex.

Damage to this nerve, termed oculomotor nerve palsy is also known by the down 'n out symptoms, because of the position of the affected eye (lateral, downward deviation of gaze).

Neurogenic ptosis which includes oculomotor nerve palsy, Horner's Syndrome, Marcus Gunn jaw winking syndrome, Third cranial nerve misdirection.

Oculomotor nerve palsy: Ischemia , intracranial aneurysm, head trauma, and brain tumors are the most common causes of oculomotor nerve palsy in adults.

A drooping eyelid can be one of the fist signals of a third nerve palsy due to a cerebral aneurysm, that otherwise is asymptomatic and referred to as an oculomotor nerve palsy.

Suspicion for myopathies should be increased in patients whose ophthalmoplegia does not match a particular set of cranial nerve palsies (oculomotor nerve palsy, fourth nerve palsy, sixth nerve palsy).

Aneurysms of the posterior communicating artery are the third most common circle of Willis aneurysm (the most common are anterior communicating artery aneurysms) and can lead to oculomotor nerve palsy.

Some of the causes of anisocoria are life threatening, including Horner's syndrome (which may be due to carotid dissection) and Oculomotor nerve palsy (due to an brain aneurysm, uncal herniation, or head trauma).

Paralytic strabismus has many causes including Oculomotor nerve palsy, Fourth nerve palsy, Congenital fourth nerve palsy, Sixth nerve palsy, Progressive external ophthalmoplegia, and Kearns-Sayre syndrome.
