ABSTRACT
Pontine cavernous hemangioma presenting as horizontal gaze palsy is extremely rare. A 32-years-old patient presented with left horizontal gaze palsy with left esotropia. A large pontine mass was present which was removed in-toto using a sub-occipital craniotomy. Post- operatively, the gaze palsy showed recovery and the diplopia decreased. Follow-up MRI showed no residual mass.
