Tolosa-Hunt syndrome.

Abstract
A 58-year-old woman with painful ophthalmoplegia of the left eye associated with thrombosis of the left superior ophthalmic vein and normal angiography is presented. Symptoms cleared on systemic prednisone therapy within 72 hours. The clinical picture associated with the venographic findings and response to steroids are characteristic of the Tolosa-Hunt syndrome.
