Abstract EN

Benign recurrent sixth nerve palsy in children is rare.

It typically occurs following viral illness or immunization, and prognosis is usually excellent.

However, it is always a diagnosis of exclusion given the more serious alternative causes.

Therefore, a thorough examination with brain imaging is recommended.

The authors report a child with six recurrent episodes of isolated benign sixth nerve palsy.
