“…It is characterized by the triad of tonic pupil, hyporeflexia, and segmental anhidrosis that is likely due to postganglionic autonomic dysfunction in the cranial nerves [16]. Although this syndrome is generally accepted to be rare, with only 40 reported cases between 1958 and 2006, a new study by Nolano et al [17•] challenges this assumption.…”

The dilated pupil can present a significant challenge to the clinician. Although in most cases a complete history and physical examination is sufficient to make an accurate diagnosis, selected patients will require further investigation, including pharmacologic testing and neuroimaging. This review outlines the physiology, clinical features, and diagnostic approach to the most important causes of the dilated pupil. Particular attention is given to recent publications on this topic.

William John Adie was an Australian neurologist in the early 20th century responsible for extensively describing the tonically dilated pupil associated with absent deep tendon reflexes -both features of a syndrome that now bears his name. In addition to other neurological syndromes, he was also significant in delineating narcolepsy through his clinical essays and case series. His ophthalmic and neurologic contributions have served the test of time and played an important role in the modern understanding of Adie syndrome and narcolepsy. This report reviews Adie's medical contributions, extensive descriptions of Adie syndrome, and provides a brief biographical account of his life.

“…Se relaciona su aparición con infecciones virales que afectan al sistema parasimpático 2-6 . En ocasiones, se añade también anhidrosis hemifacial (síndrome de Ross-Adie) 7,8 . Sin embargo, también se describe en diversas afecciones, como la neurosífilis, los síndromes paraneoplásicos, el síndrome de Guillain-Barré y en enfermedades inflamatorias sistémicas 9,10 .…”
