Syndromes with involvement of multiple cranial nerves: An overview

Abstract

We read the article entitled “Retropharyngeal soft-tissue mass with multiple cranial neuropathies” on the esteemed “Ibnosina Journal of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences” with great interest. Bennour et al. reported a case of a middle-aged male who presented with hemifacial pain. Later, the patient developed lesions from the third to the twelfth cranial nerves. A diagnosis of inflammatory pseudotumor of the retropharynx infiltrating the base of the skull and extending to the cavernous sinus was made.[[1]]
