Abstract

A 73-year-old man presenting with painful unilateral ophthalmoplegia is reported. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a mass in the cavernous sinus extending to the floor of the middle cranial fossa. After resection of the lesion and anti-tuberculous chemotherapy his symptoms improved. Pathological examination revealed extensive caseous necrosis.
