The Superior Foville Syndrome is a rare clinical feature of stroke or brain hemorrhage. Few cases have been reported worldwide particularly in Africa. We report the case of a 20 years old patient resident in Senegal with no known medical history. He was admitted on August 2015 in the Neurology Department of Fann National Teaching Hospital for an abrupt onset of left body side weakness, acute headaches and rotatory vertigo five days before admission. The physical examination found a superior Foville Syndrome. And the brain CT scan shown hemorrhage at the right inferior part of the pons compressing the fourth ventricle. No cause of this hemorrhage stroke has been found. Superior Foville syndrome is a rare clinical presentation of stroke and presented a rich semiological feature of the posterior cerebral fossa.
福维尔综合征是中风或脑出血的一种罕见临床特征。全球报道的病例很少，尤其是在非洲。我们报告一例居住在塞内加尔的20岁患者，无已知病史。他于2015年8月因入院前五天突然出现左侧身体无力、急性头痛和旋转性眩晕而入住法恩国家教学医院神经科。体格检查发现为福维尔综合征。脑部CT扫描显示脑桥右下部出血，压迫第四脑室。未发现此次出血性中风的病因。福维尔综合征是中风的一种罕见临床表现，具有丰富的后颅窝体征。
