The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

Cavernoma of the midbrain ( CM) is being diagnosed more and more often with the increasing use of MRI. We report a 46-year-old woman who presented with sudden-onset isolated oculomotor nerve palsy (ONP). Moreover, we discuss the radiological changes and different management options. We recommend that CM be included in the differential diagnosis of sudden-onset ONP, especially in normotensive young patients without other vascular risk factors.
