Abstract
|
|
|
|
Mobius syndrome is a rare congenital condition, characterized by abducens and facial nerve palsy, resulting in limitation of lateral gaze movement and facial diplegia. However, to our knowledge, there have been few studies on evaluation of cranial nerves, on MR imaging in Mobius syndrome. Herein, we describe a rare case of Mobius syndrome representing limitation of lateral gaze, and weakness of facial expression, since the neonatal period. In this case, high-resolution MR imaging played a key role in diagnosing Mobius syndrome, by direct visualization of corresponding cranial nerves abnormalities.
