Abstract
We present a rare case of a 38-year-old man diagnosed with third cranial nerve paralysis, where no abnormalities were detected on MRI. Human Herpes Virus-6 (HHV-6) infection affecting the central nervous system and associated with cranial nerve paralysis is an unusual occurrence. This report underscores the importance of considering HHV-6 as a differential diagnosis in patients presenting with cranial nerve palsy and suggests the use of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) HHV-6 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing for confirmation.
