An unusual case of multiple cranial nerve palsies in Wegener's granulomatosis.

A D Daderian1, S Chayasirisobhon.   

Abstract

We describe an unusual case of Wegener's granulomatosis, which initially caused fulminant palsies affecting cranial nerves II, V, VI, VII, and VIII during a brief episode of the disease. The patient was successfully treated with immunosuppressive therapy. Wegener's granulomatosis should be suspected when multiple cranial nerves are initially affected.
