Purpose:To report a case of hypertrophic pachymeningitis with impaired ocular motility. Case and Findings:A 77-year-old man presented with bilateral diplopia. He had had slight fever and hyperemia of his right eye since 8months before. He showed disturbed ocular motility when seen by us. He developed fever one month later,followed by exacerbation of scleritis,blepharoptosis,ocular motility disorder,and impaired right visual acuity. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed meningeal thickening in the right base of the brain,leading to the diagnosis of hypertrophic pachymeningitis. He showed positive P-ANCA antibody. Systemic corticosteroid with immunosuppressive therapy resulted in improved clinical manifestations. Conclusion:Hypertrophic pachymeningitis may have induced fever and impaired ocular motility in this patient. MRI was useful in its diagnosis.
