OCULAR MOTOR NERVE PALSIES
1. Third nerve
2. Fourth nerve
3. Sixth nerve
Anatomy of third nerveOculomotor nucleus
Pituitary gland
Carotid artery
Cavernous sinus
III nerveClivus
Basilar artery
Post cerebral artery
Red nucleus
Pons
Applied anatomy of pupillomotor nerve fibresBlood vessels on pia mater supply surface of the nerve including pupillary
fibres ( damaged by compressive lesions )
Vasa nervorum supply partof nerve but not pupillaryfibres ( damaged by medicallesions )
Pupillary fibres lie dorsal and peripheral
Signs of right third nerve palsy
• Ptosis, mydriasis and cycloplegia
• Abduction in primary position
• Limited depression • Limited adduction
• Normal abduction
• Limited elevation
• Intorsion on attempted downgaze
Hess chart of right third nerve palsy
• Contraction of right chart and expansion of left• Right chart - underactions of all muscles except lateral rectus and superior oblique• Left chart - overactions of all muscles except medial rectus and inferior oblique
Important causes of isolated third nerve palsyIdiopathic - about 25%Vascular disease - hypertension, diabetes

Extraduralhaematoma

Aneurysm

Anatomy of fourth nerve
• Only cranial nerve to emerge dorsally• Crossed cranial nerve• Very long and slender
Internal carotid artery
Postr. communicating artery
IIIVI
Postr.cerebral arterySupr.cerebellar artery
Basilar arteryIV
Signs of right fourth nerve palsy
• Right overaction on left gaze
• Right underaction on depression in adduction • Vertical diplopia
• Right hyperdeviation in primary position when left eye fixating• Excyclotorsion
Positive Bielschowsky test in right fourth nerve palsy
Absence of right hyperdeviation on contralateral head tilt
Increase in right hyperdeviation on ipsilateral head tilt
Hess chart of right fourth nerve palsy
• No significant difference in chart size• Upward deviation of right fixation spot on inner chart (hypertropia)• Downward deviation of left fixation spot on inner chart• Right chart - underaction of superior oblique and overaction of inferior oblique• Left chart - overaction of inferior rectus and underaction of superior rectus
Anatomy of sixth nerveBasilar artery
Pituitary gland
Carotid artery
Cavernous sinus
VI nerve
Petroclinoidligament
Clivus
Pyramidal tract
Vestibularnucleus
Mediallemniscus
4th ventricle
Recent right sixth nerve palsy
Right esotropia in primary position due to unopposed action of right medial rectus
Marked limitation of right abduction due toright lateral rectus weakness
Hess chart of recent right sixth nerve palsy
• Contraction of right chart and expansion of left• Right chart - marked underaction of lateral rectus and mild overaction of medial rectus• Left chart - marked overaction of medial rectus
Old right sixth nerve palsy
Straight in primary position due to partial recovery
Limitation of right abduction and horizontal diplopia
Normal right adduction
Important causes of isolated sixth nerve palsyVascular - hypertension, diabetes
Acoustic neuromaRaised intracranial pressure
Dilated ventricles
