INTRODUCTION: Acquired oculomotor palsy in juvenile age are most commonly due to head trauma, tumors, migraine, vasculopathies and demyelinating diseases. CLINICAL CASES: We document three cases of paroxysmal oculomotor nerve palsy in childhood, illustrating the main clinical symptoms, neurological examination, MR images, diagnosis, treatment and evolution. Final diagnosis were: multiple sclerosis, pineoblastoma, and craniopharyngioma. CONCLUSIONS: Sudden oculomotor nerve palsy occurring in youth in the absence of head trauma, viral infection or migraine access, firmly suggests a serious intracranial disease, and neuroimage studies should be quickly obtained to have an early diagnosis.
