[Paralysis of the nucleus of the third cranial nerve secondary to a mesencephalic hematoma].
INTRODUCTION: The oculomotor disorders due to mesencephalic pathology are very varied. Function of the third cranial nerve may be affected at the level of the nucleus, in the mesencephalic fascicular portion, interpeduncular fossa, pathway anterior to the posterior communicating artery, sinus cavernosus, sphenoid fissure and orbit. Paralysis of the common oculomotor nerve is the least common of these. Generally it is secondary to ischemic, or sometimes to hemorrhagic vascular pathology. CLINICAL CASE: We present the case of a hypertensive woman with an oculomotor nerve syndrome associated with limitation of horizontal gaze of the contralateral eye and reactive head inclination due to a mesencephalic haematoma. CONCLUSION: The three neuro-ophthalmological findings seen in our patient have rarely been described in the literature. We consider the clinical observation of this case and the study of the organization of the oculomotor nerve nucleus to be of interest for publication.

[Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy associated with prostatic adenocarcinoma].
INTRODUCTION AND CLINICAL CASE: Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) is an acquired autoimmune disorder of unknown cause. CIDP most often occurs alone and not as a complication of other disorders but may accompany plasma cell dyscrasias, human immunodeficiency virus infection, systemic lupus erythematosus and others diseases. The association of CIDP and carcinoma has rarely been reported and its relevance is debated. CONCLUSION: We report one patient with CIDP and prostatic adenocarcinoma. Steroids therapy were effective.
