Parinaud's syndrome is a constellation of neurological signs indicating injury to the dorsal midbrain. More specifically, compression of the vertical gaze center at the rostral interstitial nucleus of medial longitudinal fasciculus (riMLF).
Parinaud syndrome is a relatively uncommon neuroophthalmologic syndrome named for French ophthalmologist, Henri Parinaud. Parinaud syndrome has been known by many different names including dorsal midbrain syndrome, Sylvian aqueduct syndrome, pretectal syndrome, and Koerber-Salus-Elschnig syndrome.
Describe the characteristic presentation of Parinaud syndrome. Describe the treatment of Parinaud syndrome. Parinaud syndrome is best managed by an interprofessional team including neurology and ophthalmology. The key is to make the diagnosis of the primary disorder and manage it.
Parinaud syndrome (also called Parinaud’s syndrome and dorsal midbrain syndrome) is a rare neurological disorder that causes upward gaze palsy (the inability to gaze upward). It can also include convergence-retraction nystagmus, bilateral eyelid retraction and light-near dissociation of the pupils. The condition was named for a French ...
Parinaud’s syndrome involves dysfunction of the structures of the dorsal midbrain. We investigated the pathophysiology related to the signs and symptoms to better understand the symptoms of Parinaud’s syndrome: diplopia, blurred vision, visual field ...
Parinaud syndrome, also known as dorsal midbrain syndrome, is a supranuclear vertical gaze disturbance caused by pathology of the dorsal midbrain region, often, but not exclusively, via compression of the superior tectal plate.
Parinaud syndrome is a constellation of symptoms usually seen in patients with lesions close to the tectal plate (also known as quadrigeminal plate). It is also known as Sylvian aqueduct syndrome, pretectal syndrome, and dorsal midbrain syndrome.
