| Abstract |
A patient with bilateral trochlear nerve palsies is presented. Computed tomographic (CT) brain scan localized an anterior cerebellar vermis lesion compressing the area caudal to the inferior colliculi where the fourth nerves decussate and exit the dorsal brain stem. This lesion was probably responsible for the bilateral trochlear nerve dysfunction. Pertinent anatomy and pathologic involvement are discussed. |
