A 33 year old male patient has found in the oral cavity tumor with nausea and vomiting after 20 days ago. The patients feel pharyngeal foreign body sensation, occasional sense of suffocation, the oropharyngeal tumor disappeared and foreign body sensation disappeared after swallowing. The patients without angina, no hemoptysis, no hoarseness, no acid reflux symptoms and weight loss phenomenon. The gastroscope showed giant tumor, esophagus smooth surface, visible local gray blue blood vessels, from the entrance of esophagus has been extended to the esophagus from the upper incisors 25 cm. The huge polypoid matters originate from the entrance of esophagus, esophageal mucosa prolapse entrance left wall like folds, about 13 cm long. Inspecting the electronic laryngoscope: esophageal entrance polypoid tissue after vomiting, spit to form red giant oropharyngeal neoplasm. After the tumor swallowing into the esophagus, checking the laryngeal vestibule, bilateral aryepiglottic fold and pyriform sinus are normal. The pathological sections were diagnosed as fibrous hemangioma by HE staining.

Neurological complications after cardiac catheterization are rare. We report an unusual case of isolated third cranial nerve palsy in a 72-year-old male patient whose past medical history was significant for diabetes mellitus and coronary artery disease (CAD). He presented for elective cardiac catheterization for stable angina, which revealed multivessel CAD and no intervention was done. Two hours after the procedure, the patient suddenly started complaining of new-onset double vision in his left eye. Ophthalmologic exam revealed ptosis of the left eye lid, sluggish pupillary reflex and impaired adduction of the left eye along with exotropia of the left eye on primary gaze, all findings consistent with the left third nerve palsy. Rest of the neurological exam and neuroimaging (CT angiogram of head and MRI brain) were normal. Embolic phenomenon has been described as a possible mechanism in such patients leading to small vessel ischemic disease and cerebral microinfarction. Neuro-ophthalmologic complications after cardiac catheterization are rare but devastating for the patients. These should be recognized promptly, and patients should undergo neuroimaging to evaluate for any identifiable causes. These patients should be treated with aspirin and statin therapy and evaluated by ophthalmology for correction with prism lenses if symptoms persist.
