    Author: Kal A, Ercan ZE, Duman E, Arpaci E.
    Journal: J Craniofac Surg; 2015 Oct; 26(7):e653-5. PubMed ID: 26468854.
    Abstract:
    The combination of abducens nerve palsy and ipsilateral Horner syndrome was first described by Parkinson and considered as a localizing sign of posterior cavernous sinus lesions. The authors present a case with right abducens nerve palsy with ipsilateral Horner syndrome in a patient with carotid-cavernous fistula because of head trauma. The patient was referred to the ophthalmology clinic with diplopia complaint after suffering a head trauma during a motorcycle accident. Cerebral angiography showed low-flow carotid-cavernous fistula.
