ABSTRACT

A presença de paralisia do nervo oculomotor (NOM) sem outro déficit neurológico é considerada rara como forma de apresentação em hematoma subdural crônico (HSDC). Geralmente apresenta sintomas de déficit neurológico focal, cefaleia e alterações do nível de consciência, havendo múltiplos diagnósticos diferenciais. RTA, 79 anos, masculino. Paciente com demência senil, hipertensão arterial sistêmica e diabetes mellitus. Estado geral: moderado. Exame físico: sonolento, eupneico. Exame neurológico: disfásico e anisocoria esquerda. Tomografia computadorizada (TC) de crânio sem contraste revelou lesão com densidade heterogênea na região frontoparietotemporal esquerda com efeito de massa e hipodensa na região frontoparietal direita. Submetido a trépano-punção frontal anterior e parietal posterior esquerda e drenagem do hematoma. Evoluiu com melhora da paralisia do NOM à esquerda. Em caso de HSDC volumoso, pode-se comprimir o mesencéfalo e apresentar-se herniação do uncus do hipocampo, podendo causar paralisia do NOM. Seu diagnóstico precoce e tratamento correto apresentam bons resultados...


The presence of complete paralysis of the oculomotor nerve (OMN) with no other neurological deficit is rare as the presentation of chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). Usually there are symptoms of focal neurologic deficit, headache and changing consciousness level, so there are multiple differential diagnoses. RTA, 79-year-old man. Patient who has senile dementia, hypertension and diabetes mellitus. General condition: moderate. Physical examination: sleepy, eupneic. Neurological examination: dysphasia and anisocoria left eye. Computed tomography (CT) scan without contrast revealed a lesion with heterogeneous density in the left frontoparietotemporal region, with mass effect and hipodense region right parietofrontal. The patient was submited to trepano-punction at left anterior frontal and posterior parietal and drainage of the hematoma. He evolved with neurological improvement of the paralysis of OMN on the left eye. The CSDH when it was large, can compress the midbrain and provide herniation of hippocampus? uncus may cause paralysis of the OMN. Early diagnosis and correct treatment has shown good results...

ABSTRACT

Amongst clinicians the diagnostic approach differs to patients presenting with isolated third cranial nerve palsy. Some issues remain controversial and the management of this condition is a challenge. In a 38-year-old male presenting with pupil-involving oculomotor nerve palsy [internal dysfunction] the cause was found to be a double posterior communicating artery; a very rare cause of third nerve palsy

ABSTRACT

La parálisis de los pares craneales ha sido descrita en estudios previos, pero su presentación en la práctica clínica es poco frecuente. Se ha descrito compromiso del N. Motor Ocular Común, N. Motor Ocular Externo, N. Vestibulococlear, aunque, el nervio más frecuentemente afectado es el VI Par. El nervio motor ocular externo es especialmente vulnerable a las variaciones de la dinámica del LCR debido a su largo trayecto a través de la base del cráneo, incluyendo el reborde de la porción petrosa del hueso temporal, y su recuperación puede tomar días a meses. En el presente caso se discute la presentación clínica, fisiopatología, diagnóstico y tratamiento de la parálisis del III Par craneal, el cual es aún menos frecuente cuando está asociado a punción lumbar
