A rare case of pediatric Tolosa Hunt syndrome.
2020
Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by granulomatous inflammation involving the cavernous sinus, superior orbital fissure, and/or orbit with no additional underlying cause. Tolosa-Hunt syndrome most often presents with painful ophthalmoplegia involving one or multiple cranial nerves. Here we report the case of an 8-year-old girl who presented, atypically, without the hallmark finding of pain. This rare case of pediatric Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is the only reported example to date lacking what is considered its pathognomonic feature and thus brings to light the clinical variability of this already inconspicuous disorder.
