Neonatal diagnosis of Marcus Gunn jaw‐winking syndrome [PDF]
This report highlights the importance for neonatologists/pediatricians of considering Marcus Gunn jaw‐winking syndrome among differential diagnoses of ptosis. A detailed clinical assessment is crucial to promptly recognize and appropriately manage it.

Is there a primitive reflex residue underlying Marcus Gunn Syndrome? Rat electrophysiology [PDF]
AIM: To make an electrophysiological demonstration of a possible jaw muscle afferents-oculomotor neural pathway that was proposed by our previous works on rats, which substantiates an early “release hypothesis” on pathogenesis of human Marcus Gunn ...

Abnormal oculocardiac reflex in two patients with Marcus Gunn syndrome [PDF]
Marcus Gunn phenomenon is seen in 4 to 6% of congenital ptosis patients. We report two cases of abnormal oculocardiac reflex during ptosis correction surgery. Marcus Gunn syndrome is an autosomal dominant condition with incomplete penetrance.

Altitudinal Visual Field Defect as the Presenting Sign of a Brain Tumor: A Case Report. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Brain tumors present with symptoms depending on their type, location, and stage. Most cause visual field defects respecting vertical meridians. Compressive optic neuropathy may produce altitudinal defects, mimicking ischemic optic neuropathy.

Kinematic and diffusion tensor imaging definition of familial Marcus Gunn jaw-winking synkinesis. [PDF]
BackgroundMarcus Gunn jaw-winking synkinesis (MGJWS) is characterized by eyelid ptosis, which disappears during jaw movement. Familial MGJWS is an extremely rare condition.
