Abstract:
Isolated unilateral abducens nerve palsies associated with spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage have rarely been reported, and their association with anterior communicating artery is even rarer. We report two cases of unilateral abducens nerve palsies following rupture of anterior communicating artery aneurysms. The aneurysms were successfully clipped, and abducens nerve palsies were gradually recovered.
