Four cases of acute comitant esotropia associated with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma in children
CONCLUSIONS: This small series of 4 patients attending our clinic within a 12-month period supports the notion that children presenting with AACE should routinely be offered brain MRI. Not all children with DIPG-associated AACE have significant ophthalmic findings indicative of intracranial pathology. With the potential for increased incidence of AACE related to lockdowns, clinicians should be reminded of the infrequent possibility their patient has a more serious condition.PMID:36529745 | DOI:10.1080/09273972.2022.2143823
