-differentiated by
involvement of 5th nerve by
pain and numbness in
forehead and cheek,
25. Local pathology of orbit
Also lead to isolated &/or partial 3rd nerve palsy
Which may be associated with
-Prptosis
-conjuctival congetion
-chemosis
-pain on movement
26. ABERRANT REGENERATION OF
OCULOMOTOR NERVE
• follows damage of the nerve by trauma or tumor.
Lid gaze dyskinesis
• Elevation of the lid on adduction (inverse Duane’s sign)
• Elevation of the lid on depression (pseudo Von Graffe’s sign).
Pupil gaze dyskinesis
• Constriction on adduction (pseudo Argyll Robertson pupil)
• Constriction on depression.
Without a preceding third nerve palsy usually is caused by a
cavernous sinus tumor or aneurysm.
aberrant regeneration never occurs in Ischemic III nerve palsy
27. Mx
• OCCLUTION
• MEDICAL – multivitamin injections
• Sx –
• Potsis – silicon sling
• Squint sx – to achive alignment but not functioning
• Tenotomy of the lateral rectus and the superior oblique
combined with a transposition of the vertical recti
muscles to the insertion of the medial rectus muscle
• Partial palsy with slight medial rectus movement one
can perform a maximal recession of the lateral rectus
muscle (at least 12 mm) and resection of the medial
rectus (at least 7 mm) with upward transposition of the
tendons in case of an associated hypotropia
28. CASE
• 3YR F CHILD
• c/o inability to open RE – 2 month
• h/o fever (15 days) followed by epilepsy 2.5 month
