We present a patient with palsy of the third nerve nuclear complex secondary to cerebral toxoplasmosis. There was a unique lesion by magnetic resonance and there were no other neurological symptoms. A complete radiographic and clinical resolution was obtained by specific treatment. Such neurological symptoms in cases of toxoplasmosis have not been reported previously.
