Аннотация
BACKGROUND: We describe for the first time the clinical features and mechanisms of a bilateral dorsomedial pons and left thalamus infarction with seesaw nystagmus and internuclear ophthalmoplegia.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 62-year-old Chinese man was hospitalized for sudden-onset dizziness, diplopia, and gait disturbance. A neurological examination revealed seesaw nystagmus and internuclear ophthalmoplegia. Magnetic resonance imaging disclosed an acute infarction confined to the bilateral dorsomedial pons and left thalamus. Subsequently, 2 weeks of antithrombotic therapy led to an improvement in his symptoms.
CONCLUSIONS: This case illustrates that the acute onset of seesaw nystagmus and internuclear ophthalmoplegia accompanied by risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases are highly suggestive of brainstem infarction.
