초록

소아에서 드물게 보고되는 토로사-헌트 증후군은 둔하면서 지속적인 안와 주위의 통증과 안구운동 장애 및 해면동 주위의 뇌신경 침범을 특징으로 하는 질환으로 비특이적 염증조직에 기인한 것으로 알려져 있다. 이는 자연 치유도 가능하나 대개 스테로이드가 증상의 회복에 효과적이며 신속한 호전을 유도한다. 토로사-헌트 증후군은 그 예후가 양호하다고 알려져 있으나 일부는 치료 후에 재발하기도 한다. 우리는 토로사-헌트 증후군으로 진단받고 스테로이드 치료 후 특별한 휴우증 없이 회복되었다가 스테로이드를 감량 중 잦은 두통과 안와 주위 통증의 재발을 호소하여 장기간 저용량 스테로이드를 투여 받고 있는 여아 1례를 경험하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다.

Tolosa-Hunt syndrome is a rare disease in children characterized by dull, persistent pain around the affected eye and ophthalmoplegia caused by granulomatous inflammation in the cavernous sinus, superior orbital fissure, or orbit. Although spontaneous remission can occur, corticosteroids frequently have a dramatic response; however, recurrence can transpire after complete remission. We report an 11-year-old girl with Tolosa-Hunt syndrome who responded to corticosteroid promptly, without complications, but suffered three recurrences of headache and retro-orbital pain and required maintenance on a low dose of steroid.
