Summary: | Mobius syndrome is a multisystem disorder and typically presents with 6th and 7th cranial nerves involvement. Neuroimaging studies
have demonstrated crucial findings which may pave the way for understanding the basic pathophysiology of this rare entity. We report
magnetic resonance imaging findings of a sporadic Mobius syndrome case with Duane retraction component which never took place in
the local literature. (Turk J Ophthalmol 2013; 43: 294-6) |
