One-and-a-Half Syndrome, Type II
Arch Neurol 51:87-89, Carter,J.E.&Rauch,R.A., 1994
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
A lesion in the cavernous sinus producing occlusion of the internal carotid artery and a sixth-nerve palsy may produce a second type of one- and-a-half syndrome.Adduction rather than abduction of one eye is the preserved horizontal eye movement.This combination of eye movement deficits is unlikely to be produced by a lesion in any other location. Mucormycosis,with its propensity to produce vascular occlusion,is a likely,although not specific,cause.
