Our series highlights the variable clinical presentation of Parinaud syndrome. The classic triad of conjugate upgaze paralysis, convergence-retraction nystagmus and light-near dissociation was only present in 65% of cases. Pineal neoplasms remain an important aetiological consideration; however, primary midbrain pathology including infarction and haemorrhage constituted the majority of our cases and should be considered in all patients. Conservative management approaches for ocular symptoms are sufficient in most cases although surgical treatment of upgaze palsy can be a useful option in refractory cases.
PurposeTo present the ophthalmic manifestations of a 3-month old female with SCALP syndrome.ObservationsThe patient presented with multiple ocular anomalies including bilateral limbal dermoids, esotropia and left optic nerve hypoplasia.ConclusionsWe describe systemic and ocular anomalies in a rare case of SCALP syndrome. This report provides additional information on the ocular anomalies not previously described that may be associated with this clinical entity.
