Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Bilateral mydriasis is usually associated with severe brain stem damage or drug-induced sympathomimetic stimulation. Herein we report it as a unique neurologic complication of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 23-year-old woman presented at our emergency department with dilated pupils unresponsive to light stimuli. MRI and CT scans showed bilaterally enlarged lymph nodes in the mediastinum and supraclavicular compressing the carotid artery on both sides. The histologic examination of lymph node biopsy specimens confirmed the diagnosis of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
CONCLUSION: Pathologies around the carotid artery causing oculosympathetic spasm should be considered among the possible causes of a mydriasis, especially when other common causes like brain stem impairment are excluded.
