Abstract:
Unilateral painful opthalmoplegia involving the third, fourth, or sixth cranial nerve in association with a retro-orbital mass should be evaluated for rheumatologic conditions and malignancy. The assessment may require a biopsy of the mass. Once cancer and autoimmune conditions such as sarcoidosis have been ruled out, Tolosa-Hunt should be considered. Tolosa-Hunt is a rare condition that presents as an acute unilateral eye pain with motor dysfunction and responds to prolonged treatment with corticosteroids. Presented is a case of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome.
