Description We present a case of an elderly patient with multiple medical problems with a painful right third nerve palsy and progressive vision loss. Diagnosis of perineural spread of squamous cell carcinoma was challenging due to his concomitant medical issues limiting diagnositic testing. In many cases diagnosis is further delayed as patients are unaware of prior dermatologic history.
