Abstract
To describe an unusual case of Duane's syndrome. Individual case report. A skull base meningioma was discovered in a woman with Duane's syndrome who presented with recurrent, large-angle esotropia and uncharacteristic atrophy of the lateral rectus muscle on magnetic resonance image (MRI) scan. Neuroimaging may be useful in unusual cases of Duane's syndrome.
