Ophthalmoplegic Migraine:Reversible Enhancement and Thickening of the Cisternal Segment of the Oculomotor Nerve on Contrast-Enhanced MR Images AJNR 19:1887-1891, Mark,A.S.,et al, 1998 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Enhancement of the cisternal segment of the oculomotor nerve was seen in all patients at initial presentation. Contrast-enhanced studies also showed focal thickening at the exit of the nerve in the interpeduncular cistern in five of six patients. No patient had enhancement of the cavernous sinus or adjacent dura. Enhancement was almost completely resolved on follow-up studies 7 to 9 weeks later.
