Abstract
This is a case of a 75-year-old woman who presented with severe headache, left eye ptosis, and binocular diplopia and was found to have multiple cranial neuropathies on examination. This case reviews the localization and workup of multiple cranial neuropathies and emphasizes the importance of not prematurely narrowing the differential diagnosis.
