  • Title: Isolated brain stem tuberculoma presenting with one and a half syndrome.
    Author: Enani M, Al-Nakhli DJ, Bakhsh E.
    Journal: Saudi Med J; 2006 Sep; 27(9):1407-11. PubMed ID: 16951784.
    Abstract:
    In this report, we describe a patient with left conjugate gaze palsy and internuclear ophthalmoplegia on the opposite gaze one-and-a-half-syndrome [11/2 syndrome]. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed nodular enhancing brain stem lesions. After excluding other potential diseases, tuberculoma was thought to be the underlying etiology. Recovery was achieved 8 weeks after initiation of anti-tuberculous anti-TB therapy. The isolated nature of the tuberculoma and the association with this rare syndrome is highlighted.
