    Flashcards

    Millard Gubler's Syndrome

    A neurological condition characterized by ipsilateral facial paralysis and contralateral hemiplegia.

    VI Nerve Impact

    The abducens nerve, leading to ipsilateral medial squint.

    VII Nerve Impact

    Facial paralysis on the same side as the lesion.

    Ponto Cerebellar Angle Syndrome

    Condition involving facial paralysis, deafness, and ataxia due to acoustic neuroma.
