Abstract
- Conjugate upward and downward gaze palsy related to unilateral midbrain infarction is a rare neurological symptom, as there were few reported cases worldwide. Here, we report a case of 55-year-old male patient presenting with conjugate vertical gaze palsy. In this case, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images demonstrated a localized infarction in the right rostral midbrain.
