The Oculomotor Nerve: Anatomy and Pathology

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2022
The oculomotor nerve is the third cranial nerve, exiting the brainstem in the medial border of the cerebral peduncle, from where it crosses straight to the superior orbital fissure. It is a purely motor nerve responsible for the innervation of all the extraocular muscles, except the superior oblique and lateral rectus muscles.

Oculomotor nerve schwannoma located in the oculomotor cistern

Surgical Neurology, 2007
OSs are extremely rare tumors, most often located in the interpeduncular cistern or the CS. We report an OS located predominantly within the oculomotor cistern, the arachnoid sac that surrounds the nerve for a short distance in the roof of the CS.

Endodermal cyst of the oculomotor nerve

Neuroradiology, 2001
Endodermal cysts are rare congenital intracranial lesions. Although histologically benign, they can become symptomatic as a result of mass effect and cause neurological deficits. We report a 30-year-old woman who presented with paresis of her right oculomotor nerve.

Microsurgical Anatomy of the Oculomotor Nerve

Clinical Anatomy, 2016
The oculomotor nerve supplies the extraocular muscles. It also supplies the ciliary and sphincter pupillae muscles through the ciliary ganglion. The nerve fibers leave the midbrain through the most medial part of the cerebral peduncle and enter the interpeduncular cistern. After the oculomotor nerve emerges from the interpeduncular fossa, it enters the

The neurovascular relationships of the oculomotor nerve

Clinical Anatomy, 2011
AbstractIn this study, the arterial supply of the cisternal (initial) and the subcavernous parts of the oculomotor nerve (ON) and the relation between the nerve and adjacent vascular structures like posterior cerebral artery (PCA) and superior cerebellar artery (SCA) were investigated.

Oculomotor Nerve Palsies in Children

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1992
ABSTRACT Fifty-four patients with oculomotor nerve palsy who presented over a 21-year period at our institution were reviewed retrospectively. There were 38 isolated third nerve lesions, and 16 with additional cranial nerve involvement. Eleven cases were congenital in origin, and 43 were acquired.

Surgical Management of Nonvascular Lesions Around the Oculomotor Nerve and Reconstruction of the Oculomotor Nerve

World Neurosurgery, 2014
he oculomotor nerve is frequently involved with neoplasms involving the petroclival area and the tentorial T notch, as well as by aneurysms involving the internal carotid artery (at the origin of the posterior communicating artery) or the upper basilar artery (especially large or giant aneurysms, and basilar arteryesuperior cerebellar aneurysms ...

Schwannoma of the oculomotor nerves

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1982
✓ The authors present a series of four schwannomas of the oculomotor nerves without evidence of von Recklinghausen's disease. The literature is reviewed and the clinical, radiological, and surgical aspects of these cases are discussed. The authors stress the usefulness of computerized tomography in the diagnosis and planning of treatment.

Histopathologic Changes in Oculomotor Nerve and Ciliary Ganglion in Aneurysmatic Compression Injuries of Oculomotor Nerve

min - Minimally Invasive Neurosurgery, 2004
Bilateral common carotid artery ligation (BCCAL) increases vertebrobasilar blood flow and leads to increased luminal pressure, luminal enlargement, wall thinning, convolutions and sometimes aneurysm formation in posterior circulation arteries, especially the posterior communicating arteries (PcomA). PcomA aneurysms compress the oculomotor nerves.
