Oculomotor Palsy as the Initial Finding in Neurofibromatosis Type 2. Neuro-Ophthalmology, 34(1), 55-58. Doi: 10.3109/016581009035035280165-8107https://dx.doi.org/10.3109/01658100903503528https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12395/25111A 15-year-old boy with oculomotor palsy in the left eye as the initial finding of neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) was presented. The eye motility examination revealed restriction in adduction, elevation and depression of the left eye and mild ptosis of the left eye. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a 3 cm sized mass in the cerebellar vermis that showed features of a schwannoma; bilateral lesions in the acoustic canals and bilateral optic nerve buckling: these findings were consistent with a diagnosis of NF2. Further thin-section MRI revealed a mass in the left cavernous sinus segment of the oculomotor nerve and a thickening of the right oculomotor nerve.en10.3109/01658100903503528info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessneurofibromatosis type 2oculomotor palsyptosisvestibular schwannomaMR imagingArticle3415558Q3WOS:000275600800008Q4
