We present a case of isolated eight-and-a-half syndrome with a pontine hemorrhage and discuss it’s topological implications in context of neurological practice. This is the one of few cases presenting with eight-and-a-half syndrome following the pontine hemorrhage. Despite showing similar clinical features and clinical prognosis the our case is intriguing due to its unique topological anatomy demonstrating an initial improvement in ocular symptoms.","PeriodicalId":519015,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Neurology and Neurosurgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140529486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
