  • Title: Inferior branch palsy of the oculomotor nerve.
    Author: Susac JO, Hoyt WF.
    Journal: Ann Neurol; 1977 Oct; 2(4):336-9. PubMed ID: 617270.
    Abstract:
    Three patients with inferior branch palsies of the oculomotor nerve are described. Two were under 10 years of age and the third was 30 years old at the onset. All 3 presented with painless diplopia. The onset was sudden in 2 patients and progressive in the third. The palsy cleared within a short time in the 2 patients with sudden onset, and a possible viral origin was considered. In the third patient, with progressive palsy, there was no change eight years later.
