Abstract
Over a period of a few days a VIth and peripheral VIIth nerve paresis appeared in a 34-year-old woman on the right side. together with a gaze paretic nystagmus to the right. During the following six days a complete horizontal gaze paralysis to the right developed. A tumor destroying the abducens nucleus and the immediately surrounding area was diagnosed as the cause of this disorder of conjugate horizontal gaze. This was confirmed by autopsy.Keywords
