Nystagmus is a rhythmic oscillation of the eyes that may be acquired or congenital. The symptoms of acquired nystagmus include blurred vision and oscillopsia. Most patients with congenital nystagmus do not have oscillopsia symptoms. Several forms of nystagmus have localizing value and any neuroimaging should be directed to the topographic localization suggested by the morphology of the nystagmus and any accompanying localizing signs. Several optical, medical, and surgical treatments have been used with some success in specific forms of nystagmus.
The results of vestibular investigations in a patient with confirmed lateral medullary syndrome are presented. This patient showed a unilateral weakness on caloric testing which has not been reported previously in a patient with lateral medullary syndrome. The case for the possibility of a 'central' canal paresis on caloric testing is presented.
