title: [Oculomotor paralysis and head trauma].
abstract: Few studies have dealt with post-trauma ocular motor palsy. We analyzed 31 personal cases and reviewed the literature, focusing on pathogenesis. We emphasize the importance of a complete radiological examination including magnetic resonance imaging when the CT-scan does not provide a satisfactory correlation between anatomic findings and clinical presentation. Systematic detection, early management and regular follow-up is mandatory.
