| Description |
A 49-years~old woman developed acute steroid responsive right painful ophthalmoplegia. Laboratory investigation including CT-scan was negative. Repeated attempts to withdraw steroids proved futile until nine months after onset when radiotherapy was administered to the involved cavernous sinus. Following this treatment she was weaned from steroids without a relapse during a 32 months follow-up. The CT-scan has remained unrevealing throughout the course. |
