  • Title: [Paralytic pontine exotropia disclosing endocarditis].
    Author: Nicoli F, Beaurain P, Dalecky A, Cohen F, Farnarier P, Gastaut JL.
    Journal: Rev Neurol (Paris); 1992; 148(5):368-71. PubMed ID: 1448652.
    Abstract:
    A case of bacterial endocarditis complicated by paralytic pontine exotropia is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging clearly showed a rostral lesion of the paramedial pontine reticular formation and the medial longitudinal fasciculus. The occurrence of paralytic pontine exotropia is suggestive of ischaemia, and patients with this so-called "one-and-a-half syndrome" associated with signs of infection should be investigated for endocarditis.
