title: Duane's syndrome with compressive denervation of the lateral rectus muscle.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe an unusual case of Duane's syndrome.
  
  
  METHODS
  Individual case report.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A skull base meningioma was discovered in a woman with Duane's syndrome who presented with recurrent, large-angle esotropia and uncharacteristic atrophy of the lateral rectus muscle on magnetic resonance image (MRI) scan.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Neuroimaging may be useful in unusual cases of Duane's syndrome.
