ABSTRACT
Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is typically associated with an infl ammatory lesion in the cavernous sinus or orbital fi ssure, often requiring steroids for symptom resolution. In this report, we describe a case of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome preceded by several years’ history of idiopathic recurrent facial palsies. The spontaneous resolution of THS in our case as well as prior facial nerve involvement supports the hypothesis that Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is part of a spectrum of idiopathic recurrent cranial neuropathy.
