- Title
Transient Horizontal Gaze Palsy in a One-Month-Old Boy after a Fall.
- Authors
Bourne, Sarah K.; Duhaime, Ann-Christine
- Abstract
A 1-month-old boy was evaluated after a fall from a height of 3 feet and found to have right parietal skull fracture as well as right and left frontal traumatic hemorrhage. Ten days after the injury, he represented with a persistent left gaze preference. Further workup including MRI and EEG determined that this finding was most likely due to a small, focal, left-frontal eye field lesion. We review the horizontal gaze pathway and demonstrate that this is present at this very young age, and that a very focal and relatively minor injury can cause gaze disturbance. © 2015 S.
