Abstract

Isolated hypoglossal nerve lesions often reflect sinister neoplastic or vascular pathology. Rarely, reversible lesions occur, perhaps via mechanisms similar to Bell’s palsy. We report a patient with reversible isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy as the first and predominant early manifestation of pre-eclampsia and speculate on the pathogenesis behind this abnormality.
