“…Of all identified cases, only 15 qualified for a diagnosis of THS according to ICHD-3 beta (Table 1) and were included in the study [1,8,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30]. year-old patient, who also met these criteria, was included in the final analysis.…”

“…us, exposing patients to a risky procedure such as a biopsy should not be a necessity for diagnosis. Kóbor et al [13] recommend a repeat of the MRI in a patient with an initially normal MRI to reveal new inflammatory signs which could appear months after the initial presentation. Mainly because of costs, our patient did not have MRI in the follow-up, and she was monitored by clinical visits only.…”

Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is a painful ophthalmoplegia characterized by recurrent unilateral orbital pain, ipsilateral oculomotor paralysis, and a rapid response to steroids. Our report describes a 37-year-old young woman who presented with right ptosis, ipsilateral ophthalmoplegia, and painful headache with no other neurological deficits in which all biological and neuroimaging investigations were normal. Complete recovery within one week of corticosteroid therapy was observed. is is probably the first case of Tolosa-Hunt syndrome reported in Dakar, Senegal.

“…In 2004, Kóbor et al. (15) reported the case of a 12‐year‐old girl with an intermittent clinical history of right periorbital pain and sixth nerve palsy, yet with initially ambiguous MRI and MRA findings; oral methylprednisolone was prescribed, but was discontinued after about a week because of its inefficacy. Five months later, a new MRI investigation revealed a 7‐mm contrast enhancing hyperintense lesion (coronal T1‐weighted MRI) along the intracranial segment of the internal carotid artery, bulging medially in the right cavernous sinus.…”

Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) is characterized by unilateral painful ophthalmoplegia with oculomotor paresis, associated with an idiopathic granulomatous inflammation involving the cavernous sinus, with a typical relapsing-remitting course. We report a case of an 8-year-old girl who was admitted because of an ophthalmoplegia with exotropia and ptosis of the left eyelid, accompanied by diplopia and left sovraorbital pain. The clinical data, neuroradiological findings and response to steroid treatment suggested THS, as defined by the 2004 International Classification of Headache Disorders (ICHD)-II criteria. THS must be considered a possible cause of painful ophthalmoplegia in childhood, as well as in adults, and confirmed with a focused neuroradiological investigation. The few paediatric cases described in the literature that meet the 2004 ICHD-II criteria are not sufficient to identify possible differences between the paediatric and the adult forms. Every new paediatric case should therefore be reported in order to gather and compare further information.
