Abstract
A patient with superior orbital fissure syndrome caused by metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma is reported. She had painful ophthalmoplegia and decreased sensation along the first branch of the trigeminal nerve. Histological confirmation was done by biopsy of sternal metastases. The awareness of various neurological presentations apart from hepatic failure in this malignancy is emphasized.
