Locked-in syndrome associated with ocular bobbing.
Locked-in syndrome together with an ocular bobbing phenomenon was observed in a 41-year-old man, an association which has not been reported earlier. Computerized tomography demonstrated an infarction of the medio-ventral portion of the pons. The patient survived and is still alive ten months after the onset of the disease with severe neurological deficit.
