CN VI palsy is the classic false localizing sign.

Raised ICT from a frontal lobe mass may cause it, even though CN VI mostly lies in the posterior fossa.

🧠 Dorello's canal
Gruber’s ligament forms the roof of Dorello’s canal, while the petrous temporal bone forms the floor.
This canal carries the abducens nerve & can be compressed in raised ICP or trauma.

Clinical features of SO palsy
💡Some patients won't have diplopia and will complain of blurring of vision when looking down and to the opposite side.
💡To avoid diplopia, patients tilt their heads to the opposite side.

[Neurology Teaching Club @neuroteaching]

Superior oblique muscle action.
💡 When the eye is abducted and in a neutral position, the superior oblique is a strong intorter
💡When the eye is adducted, it is a depressor.
💡Its tertiary action is the abduction of the eye.

Clinical features of SO palsy
💡The patients usually complain of binocular diplopia with vertically separated images.
💡The diplopia will be more when looking down and to the opposite side, which is the action of the ipsilateral superior oblique

Clinical examination of intorsion
💡Focus on a capillary on the limbus at around 12 o'clock position and ask the patient to look at the tip of the nose.
💡The capillary is supposed to move clockwise in the right eye and anticlockwise in the left eye if the intorsion is normal.

The oculomotor nuclear complex
💡The superior rectus subnucleus is unique as it supplies the contralateral eye.
💡Damage to one side can lead to bilateral superior rectus weakness.
