Abstract

Isolated schwannomas of motor nerves to extraocular muscles are uncommon. In addition, most previous studies on oculomotor nerve schwannoma discuss adult patients, and pediatric cases are rare. We report a 10-year-old girl who developed recurrent oculomotor nerve palsy caused by schwannoma without any vascular malformation. Although the incidence is rare in pediatric patient, the recurrent isolated oculomotor nerve palsy due to schwannoma can develop, and it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of ocular motility disorders in pediatric patients. Careful imaging evaluation is needed to identify schwannoma due to its small size, deep location in the brain, and rarity.
