Cavernous sinus subarachnoid diverticulum and sixth nerve palsy
Abstract
Metrizamide CT cisternography in a young woman with a chronic sixth nerve palsy demonstrated a cavernous sinus subarachnoid diverticulum originating from the cerebellopontine cistern. The possible etiologic role of this diverticulum in her palsy is discussed.
