Abstrakt:	Cavernous sinus syndrome is a unique constellation of cranial nerve deficits occurring typically as a result of pathologic infiltration of the cavernous sinus, which is located in the lateral sellar compartment of the calvarium. This case report describes a polyneuropathy consistent with cavernous sinus syndrome as a result of a lesion outside of the cavernous sinus. The cat was presented with right internal and external ophthalmoplegia, loss of right corneal sensation, inspiratory stridor, dysphagia, dysphonia, tongue weakness, and weight loss. Magnetic resonance imaging identified a large nasopharyngeal mass along the base of, but without extension into, the calvarium. The histologic diagnosis was nasopharyngeal lymphoma. Focal extracranial masses should be considered as differential diagnoses for multiple cranial nerve deficits, including the constellation of clinical signs recognized as cavernous sinus syndrome.
