Abstract:
Two patients with a dural carotid-cavernous sinus fistula presented with unilateral oculomotor nerve palsies without signs of ocular congestion or proptosis. According to this, dural carotid-cavernous sinus fistula should be included in the differential diagnosis of any case of painful ophthalmoplegia, even in the absence of other ocular signs.
