Popis: Unilateral internuclear ophthalmoplegia become manifest by homolateral paralysis of ocular adduction and contralateral nystagmus. Principal causes are multiple sclerosis and vertebro-basilar insufficiency. We report a case in which this signal appeared as the first clinical manifestation of bacterial endocarditis and turned up to be the only neurological finding.
