The Tolosa-Hunt syndrome.

TL;DR: The diagnostic eponym Tolosa-Hunt syndrome has been applied to patients with painful ophthalmoplegia and it is this entity which forms the basis of this review.

The Tolosa-Hunt syndrome

TL;DR: While the etiology of THS is unknown, current pathogenetic theories are reviewed and careful initial patient examination and scrupulous follow-up evaluation are essential, asTHS is categorically a diagnosis of exclusion.

Tolosa-Hunt syndrome: one cause of painful ophthalmoplegia

TL;DR: Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is differentiated from other causes of painful ophthalmoplegia including tumors, aneurysms, collagen disease, specific infections, mucoceles, and benign granulomas of unknown etiology.

Superior orbital fissure syndrome: Some clinical and radiological observations

TL;DR: It is inferred that there may be a clinicopathological spectrum encompassing both the Tolosa Hunt syndrome and pseudotumour of the orbit and the condition described here is responsive to corticosteroids.

Tolosa-Hunt Syndrome Revisited: Not Necessarily a Diagnosis of Exclusion

TL;DR: In this paper, a high-resolution CT of the orbital apex/cavernous sinus region was used to diagnose the Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS), a steroid-responsive painful ophthalmoplegia secondary to idiopathic granulomatous inflammation.

TL;DR: After excluding these identifiable lesions, there remain a number of cases of more obscure etiology that cannot be termed “ophthalmoplegic migraine” and should be reserved for these cases.

Periarteritic lesions of the carotid siphon with the clinical features of a carotid infraclinoidal aneurysm.

TL;DR: A case is reported in which the evolution and clinical condition of the patient seemed to point to the diagnosis of intracavernous carotid aneurysm, while the arteriographic examination suggested the existence of disease of the wall of the carotids siphon, and this was subsequently confirmed at necropsy.

Superior Orbital Fissure Syndrome: Report of a Case Caused by Local Pachymeningitis

TL;DR: The motor nerves to the eye and the first branch of the trigeminal nerve leave the middle cranial fossa through the superior orbital fissure through this relatively narrow cleft to give rise to a syndrome which consists of retro-orbital pain, paresis of the ocular muscles, and sensory changes in the distribution of the first trigemial branch.
