MeSH
description:
A syndrome characterized by marked limitation of abduction of the
eye,
variable limitation of adduction and retraction of the globe, and narrowing of
the palpebral fissure on attempted adduction. The condition is caused by
aberrant innervation of the lateral rectus by fibers of the oculomotor nerve.
There are three subtypes: type 1 (associated with loss of abduction), type 2 (associated
with loss of adduction), and type 3 (loss of abduction and adduction). It is
usually caused by congenital hypoplasia of the abducens nerve or nucleus, but
may rarely represent an acquired syndrome. (Adams et al., Principles of
Neurology, 6th ed, p271; Miller et al., Clinical Neuro-Ophthalmology, 4th
ed,
p691) |
