  • Title: An unusual case of painful ophthalmoplegia in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis.
    Author: Knopf HL.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1989 Nov; 21(11):412-3. PubMed ID: 2619150.
    Abstract:
    A 43-year-old woman with long-standing rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus had pain and horizontal diplopia. Clinical symptoms were consistent with inflammation of the right superior oblique tendon sheath, but a computed tomographic scan showed no pathology. Treatment with systemic corticosteroids reduced the symptoms, but the patient was left with a persistent muscle imbalance.
