Millard-Hübler syndrome

Millard-Hübler syndrome, also known as Gübler syndrome, is a neurological disorder that is characterized by paresis (partial loss of motor function) of the oculomotor nerves and hemiplegia (semi-paralysis) of the opposite side of the body.

This syndrome was named after two French doctors, Antoine Millard and Henri Gubler, who first described it in 1866. They found that patients with this syndrome have brain damage in the cerebellum and pons.

The main symptoms of Millard-Hübler syndrome are: diplopia (double vision), ptosis (drooping of the upper eyelid), strabismus (dilation of the eyes), hemiplegia, as well as impaired coordination of movements and speech.

The causes of the development of Millard-Hübler syndrome can be strokes, brain tumors, head injuries, inflammatory diseases of the brain and other diseases.

Various methods are used to diagnose the syndrome, including neurological examination, computed tomography (CT) of the brain, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electroencephalography (EEG).

Treatment of Millard-Hübler syndrome is aimed at improving symptoms and maintaining the patient's quality of life. Depending on the cause of the disease, drug therapy, physical therapy, rehabilitation and surgical treatments may be used.

Thus, Millard-Hübler syndrome is a serious disease that requires a careful neurological examination and comprehensive treatment. Timely diagnosis and treatment play an important role, which can help the patient return to normal life.



Millard-Hübler syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that is characterized by difficulty swallowing food and speaking. It is believed that it is associated with disruption of the muscles of the larynx and surrounding tissues. The disease manifests itself at an early age, when the child begins to speak and eat independently.

The most common symptoms of Millard-Gütbler syndrome are: * Difficulty swallowing (dysphagia) and difficulty breathing (pseudostridor) * Impaired tongue (dysarthria) and speech (dyslalia) * Problems chewing and swallowing solid foods

Diagnosis of Millard-Hütbler syndrome is based on clinical examination and laboratory tests, including blood tests, MRI of the neck, and ultrasound of the larynx.

Millard-Gütbler treatment may include surgical correction of laryngeal reflux (malformations of the recurrent nerves), electrical stimulation
