Two Rare Presentations of Pontine Lesions: One-And-A-Half Syndrome and Eight-And-A-Half Syndrome

One-and-a-half syndrome refers to a unilateral lesion involving the ipsilateral medial longitudinal fascicle and the 6th cranial nevre nucleus and/or the paramedian pontine reticular formation. Eight-and-a-half syndrome is a syndrome in which one-and-a-half syndrome and ipsilateral 7th cranial nevre palsy are seen together. These rare conditions result from limited lesions of the pontine tegmentum. We presented two cases with one-and-a-half and eight-and-a-half syndromes with ischemic infarction and hemorrhage in pons, respectively.
