Wall-Eyed Monocular Internuclear Ophthalmoplegia (WEMINO) with Contraversive Ocular Tilt Reaction

Abstract

Wall-eyed monocular internuclear ophthalmoplegia (WEMINO) with contraversive ocular tilt reaction has not been previously reported. A 71-year-old woman suddenly developed blurred vision. Examination revealed left internuclear ophthalmoplegia, left exotropia, right hypotropia, and rightward head tilt. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a tiny infarction at the area of the left medial longitudinal fasciculus in the upper pons. WEMINO with contraversive ocular tilt reaction may be caused by a paramedian pontine tegmental infarction that selectively involves the medial longitudinal fasciculus.
