- •
We report 2 cases of sudden-onset third nerve palsy due to vascular compression.
- •
Both cases had risk factors for atherosclerosis.

Brain MRI revealed enhancement of the third nerve at the site of vascular compression.
- •
Symptoms of third nerve palsy improved gradually without surgical intervention.
- •
Inflammation superimposed on vascular compression can trigger third nerve palsy.
