title: Weber's syndrome.
abstract: We examined a young patient with sickle cell anemia and a history of spinal meningitis who presented with signs of Weber's syndrome. Weber's syndrome is manifested by a homolateral third nerve palsy and contralateral hemiplegia. Evaluation and management of this case is presented, with a discussion on the probable association of Weber's syndrome and the spinal meningitis that occurred.
