A Case Report of Wall-Eyed Bilateral Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia with Bilateral Facial Palsy

초록

Case reports of bilateral facial palsy with horizontal gaze restriction are rare. A 62-year-old woman experienced sudden onset of bilateral adduction deficits, bilateral abducting nystagmus accompanied with facial diplegia. We confirmed acute ischemic stroke in the midline dorsal pons, where medial longitudinal fasciculus (MLF) and facial nerve fascicles are located. This can be explained by vascular variation of pontine perforating arteries.
