Paresia transitoria del nervio troclear tras angioplastia percutánea / Transient trochlear nerve palsy following percutaneous angioplasty

CASO CLÍNICO: Presentamos el caso de un varón de 63 años con paresia troclear unilateral derecha que comenzó con diplopía vertical tras someterse a una angiografía coronaria programada con intervención percutánea coronaria por vía radial. Se resolvió espontáneamente en 2 meses. DISCUSIÓN: La oftalmoplejía tras la realización de angioplastia percutánea coronaria es una situación rara. Solamente se han descrito oftalmoplejías internucleares y paresias de los pares craneales III y VI tras angioplastias percutáneas, siendo este el primer caso de oftalmoplejía aislada del IV par craneal unilateral descrito tras dicho procedimiento

CASE REPORT: A case is presented of a 63-year-old man who suffered a unilateral isolated trochlear nerve palsy with vertical diplopia following an elective radial coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention, which resolved spontaneously within 2 months.
