 A case of pontine tegmen tumor is reported. In the early stage of the disease, neurological examinations revealed remarkable oculomotor dysfunction, such as bilateral gaze nystagmus of Bruns'type, vertical nystagmus induced by positional and positioning tests, disturbed optokinetic responses, perverted caloric nystagmus and decreased vestibular nystagmus to the left side.

 In the advanced stage, there appeared a complete gaze paralysis to the left, decreased optokinetic responsiveness, absence of quick component during caloric stimulation, paresis of cranial nerve from the third to the twelfth mainly on the left side and ataxia in both extremities.

 Towards the final stage, disphagia and dysarthria appeared and the patient died due to repiratory palsy.

 A tumor of 2.7×2.5×2.3cm was found on the left inferior part of pontine tegmentum at the autopsy.

 Histological study revealed a pilocytic anaplastic subependymoma.
