Abstracts
We report a patient with a small unilateral midbrain lesion who showed both vertical gaze and convergence palsies. We speculate that the small lesion located near the rostral interstitial nucleus of the medial longitudinal fasciculus (riMLF) and the interstitial nucleus of Cajal (INC) is responsible for these ocular palsies. Our observations suggest that convergence neurons are located in the vicinity of the riMLF/INC.
