Horner's syndrome (HS) occurs due to loss of sympathetic innervation to the eye, mainly characterized by a tetrad of signs: ptosis, miosis, enophthalmos, and protrusion of the third eyelid. Several factors may contribute to the syndrome secondary to trauma, stroke, cancer or inflammatory diseases. Neoplasms in cervical regions may compress the sympathetic innervation of the eye, causing metastasis in certain regions of the body, and high vascularity, location and intimate relationship of the tumor with important structures (vessels of the chest and neck) make an unfavorable prognosis. Thus, the objective is to report the occurrence of HS by cervical compression of the vagus sympathetic trunk by quemodctoma malignant carotid. |
