title: Vertical congenital ocular motor apraxia.
abstract: The authors describe a case of vertical congenital ocular motor apraxia (COMA). The pathways of vertical saccades and pursuits are briefly outlined, and a possible cause of vertical COMA is suggested. A neuropathological correlate is needed to confirm the cause of both vertical and horizontal ocular motor apraxia.
