ABSTRACT
We report a case of pontine infarct that occurred after facial trauma with a fracture of the skull base. Reports of trauma-induced pontine infarcts have generally involved cervical trauma. This is the first report to our knowledge after facial trauma with skull base fracture. We suggest that intracranial vertebro-basilar dissection could be a possible mechanism.
