Idiopathic hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis is a rare condition. A case of idiopathic hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis presenting as Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is being reported. The importance of neuroimaging in patients with suspected Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is discussed. Tolosa-Hunt syndrome might represent a focal manifestation of Idiopathic hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis. Future studies are necessary to further clarify the relationship between these two conditions.
特发性肥厚性硬脑膜炎是一种罕见疾病。本文报告了一例表现为托洛萨-亨特综合征的特发性肥厚性硬脑膜炎病例。讨论了神经影像学检查在疑似托洛萨-亨特综合征患者中的重要性。托洛萨-亨特综合征可能是特发性肥厚性硬脑膜炎的一种局灶性表现。未来有必要开展进一步研究以明确这两种疾病之间的关系。
