Description |
Spasmus nutans (SN) is a rare childhood neuro-ophthalmologic syndrome that presents in the first year of life and is characterized by shimmering asymmetric nystagmus, torticollis and head-bobbing. SN is typically benign and resolves spontaneously but has also been associated with optic pathway gliomas and sellar masses (OPG/SM). We determined which SN clinical features on history and exam were associated with SN due to OPG/SM versus benign SN. |
