Abstract

The Stilling-Duane syndrome is a congenital disease responsible for restrictions of horizontal ocular movements due to total or partial agenesis of the abducens nerve or nucleus and an abnormal innervation of the lateral rectus by oculomotor nerve fibers. In its most common clinical form, type 1, The eye’s abduction movement is impacted, and it is often diagnosed as an acquired paralysis of the abducens nerve. Through this case, we want to show that it is a common error and that it is crucial to think about this syndrome before any acquired paralysis of the abducens suspicion.
