초록

The Tolosa-Hunt syndrome(THS) consists of a painful ophthalmoplegia related to a granulomatous inflammatory process in the cavernous sinus, which may be documented by cerebral magnetic resonance imaging with gadolinium enhancement. Generally, it has been reported that 2 weeks steroid therapy relieves the symptoms(periorbital pain, ophthalmoplegia) of THS. In this case, there had been no improvement of symptoms by western medical treatments(steroid & analgesics). but, the symptoms were resolved clearly by acupuncture therapy during 6 weeks(5 times/week). If more clinical trials like this are proved to be effective in THS, we can expect that acupuncture will be another therapeutical modality in THS.
