Abstract
Anatomic reports have demonstrated that the sympathetic fibers leave the carotid plexus to join the abducens nerve in the posterior part of the cavernous sinus. A lesion in this area may cause both an abducens nerve palsy and ipsilateral Horner's syndrome. This article details two additional cases of this uncommon occurrence.Entities:
