HORNER'S SYNDROME SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS Horner's syndrome is characterized by an interruption of the oculosympathetic nerve pathway somewhere between its origin in the hypothalamus and the eye. The classic clinical findings associated with Horner's syndrome are ptosis, pupillary miosis and facial anhidrosis. Other findings may include apparent enophthalmos, increased amplitude of accommodation, heterochromia of the irides (if it occurs before age two), paradoxical contralateral eyelid retraction, transient decrease in intraocular pressure and changes in tear viscosity. Horner's syndrome has no predilection for age, race, gender or geographic location. Horner's syndrome of congenital origin is typically around the age of two years with heterochromia and absence of a horizontal eyelid fold or crease in the ptotic eye. Iris pigmentation (which is under sympathetic control during development) is completed by the age of two, making heterochromia an uncommon finding in Horner's syndromes acquired later in life. Old photographs can aid the clinician in distinguishing congenital Horner's by documenting heterochromia present at, or near, birth. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY The common etiologies of acquired preganglionic Horner's syndrome include, but are not limited to, trauma, aortic dissection, carotid dissection, tuberculosis and Pancoast tumor. Common causes of post-ganglionic Horner's syndrome include trauma, cluster migraine headache and neck or thyroid surgery.

Horner's Syndrome Horner's syndrome is an intriguing disorder of the nervous system that is complex to explain. There are two major divisions of the nervous system. There is the part of your nervous system that you are aware of and have control over. For example you feel cold and in response you consciously initiate all the actions that result in you putting on a jacket. This is the voluntary nervous system . Additionally there is the part of your nervous system that is under automatic control. You cannot control this system and the actions occur without your input. Again you feel cold and start to shiver. That occurs without your control or input. Similarly, you do not have to think to make your heart beat. The automatic (doctor's call it autonomic ) nervous system - the part you have no control of - itself has two divisions... the sympathetic and parasympathetic ganglion ) occurs. The portion of the nerve from the brain to the shoulders and back to the base of the ear is called the pre-ganglionic nerve. After the ganglion, the nerve goes to the eye. This is the

French German Italian Portuguese Spanish Powered by SYSTRAN Horner's Syndrome Horner's syndrome is not uncommon and occurs in dogs, cats, horses and many other species. The symptoms generally include a sunken in eye (enophthalmia) with a small pupil (miosis), a droopy upper eyelid (ptosis) and a prominant third eyelid. Horner's syndrome must be differentiated from Uveitis which also produces a constricted pupil and a droopy looking eye. Horner's syndrome is an intriguing disorder which is quite complex to explain. Here goes.... There are two major divisions with your nervous system. There is the part of your nervous system that you are aware of and have control over, and there is the part of your nervous system that is under automatic control. You can perceive cold, and in responding to that stimulus consciously initiate all the actions that result in you putting on a jacket. But the shiver occurs without your control. Similarly, you do not have to think to make your heart beat. The autonomic nervous system - the part you have no control of - itself has two divisions... the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Under normal conditions there is a fine balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic stimulation. If someone attacks you with a knife, your pupils dilate, blood is shifted to your muscles, and your heart beats faster as you prepare to fight or flee. This is sympathetic stimulation.

Causes, incidence, and risk factors Return to top There are many potential causes of Horner's syndrome. Any interruption of the sympathetic nerve fibers which start in the hypothalamus (a central brain region) and run via the upper spinal cord near the carotid artery and to the face may lead to Horner's syndrome. Such injuries can result from a stroke in the brainstem, injury to the carotid artery, a tumour in the upper lobe of the lung, and cluster headaches. Rarely, Horner's syndrome may be congenital (present at birth) and associated with a lack of pigmentation of the iris. Eye drops and certain medications may also lead to this condition. Symptoms Return to top Symptoms may include drooping of the eyelid, constriction of the pupil, and decreased sweating on the affected side of the face. These symptoms may vary. Other symptoms associated with the underlying cause may also occur.

A “syndrome” is a collection of symptoms that have meaning when they go together. It is important to realize that having a syndrome is not the same as having a diagnosis. A syndrome, however, often has a limited number of causes such that recognizing a specific syndrome brings one substantially closer to a specific diagnosis. WHAT IS HORNER’S SYNDROME? Horner’s syndrome consists of five signs: Constricted Pupil Elevation of the Third Eyelid Retraction of the eyeball into the head Slight drooping of the Eyelid Increased pink color and warmth of the ear and nose on the affected side (very hard to detect in small animals) All these signs are caused by damage to sympathetic nervous system as it supplies the eye on the affected side of the head. WHAT IS THE SYMPATHETIC NERVOUS SYSTEM? Our bodies have numerous functions that are controlled by our nervous systems yet we are completely unaware of them. Our heart and respiratory rates, the amount of sweat and other secretions we produce, circulation to different body areas, pupil dilation and constriction are all regulated by our nervous systems automatically and without our knowledge or control. The part of our nervous system dedicated to these automatic systems is called the “Autonomic nervous system.”

Doctors' Answers to "Frequently Asked Questions" - Horners Syndrome These comments are made for the purpose of discussion and should NOT be used as recommendations for or against therapies or other treatments. An individual patient is always advised to consult their own physician. Horner’s Syndrome [posted 8/11/98] Question: I had my first child in February of 1996. During the course of labor I was given an epidural as was planned. Within a matter of minutes I started to lose feeling in the left side of my face and arm. Upon looking in the mirror I was astonished to find that I looked as though I had had a stroke. Both the doctor and the anesthesiologist told me that I was suffering from a Horner's Syndrome. Almost all of the paralysis faded within 24 hours, though my left eye occasionally is sluggish to react to light change. I am now expecting my second child and trying to find out the likelihood of suffering the same problem if I attempt to have an epidural. I would also like to know if and how this problem will effect any future medical procedures. Answer: I don't know why you should have had a Horner's with an epidural. Consequently, I wouldn't expect a second occurrence. Did you see a neurologist? Might be useful prior to the epidural?

Horner's Syndrome The patient has a slight right ptosis with ipsilateral miosis(you may need to shield the eyes or dim the light to accentuate the anisocoria). There is an apparent right enophthalmos. Additional signs (which may be difficult to detect) are anhydrosis and vasodilation of head and neck if the lesion were pre-ganglionic. Look for the cause: difference in eye colour in congenital Horner's syndrome (as in this case, the right eye is lighter than the left) neck scar as in thryoidectomy wasting of ipsilateral hand muscles due to brachial plexus lesion as in Pancoast's tumour scars below the claivcle from sympathetomy for Raynaud's disease (this is an out-dated treatment) Questions: 1. What is the cause enophthalmos in Horner's syndrome? answer The patient has apparent enophthalmos due to narrowing of the palpebral fissure. This enophthalmos is not true enophthalmos and cannot be demonstrated with exophthalmometer. It is causes by the ptosis and updrawing of the lower lid as a result of paralysis of the Muller's muscle of the upper lid and the smooth muscle of the lower lid retractor.

Horner's syndrome This 53 year-old man was referred by his optician because of dropping of the right eyelid. However, the patient was unaware of any aigns or symptoms. On examination, the right upper lid was ptotic with small pupil. The lower lid was also higher than that of the left giving the right eye an apparent enophthalmos. There was no heterochromia. Direct questioning did not reveal any signs or symptoms of asymmetrical facial sweating or flushing during exercise. Clinically, the patient has a right Horner's syndrome. Pharmacological test was performed to determine the site of the lesion. 1:1000 adrenaline was instilled into both eyes but there was no changes in the pupil sizes. The result suggested that the Horner's syndrome is of a preganglionic nature (Note: in the presence of post-ganglionic lesion, the affected pupil will dilate due to denervation hypersensitivity). A chest X-ray was requested but showed no signs of apical abnormalities. The patient was reviewed at regular interval for any new symptoms. More pictures
