  • Title: Tolusa-Hunt syndrome: resolution of a 12-year course after tonsillectomy.
    Author: Frable MA, Myer EC.
    Journal: Laryngoscope; 1987 Mar; 97(3 Pt 1):334-5. PubMed ID: 3821354.
    Abstract:
    The authors review the symptoms, physical findings, possible causes, and treatment of Tolusa-Hunt syndrome (THS). The authors present a patient with THS and tonsillitis. The symptoms, except for blindness, were alleviated after tonsillectomy. Anatomical relationships of the tonsils to the cavernous sinus are demonstrated and tonsillitis as a possible trigger mechanism of THS is suggested.
