Abstract
Harlequin syndrome is a disorder of the autonomic nervous system. It clinically presents as a distinct line of hemifacial sympathetic denervation. We describe a case of Harlequin syndrome with co-existing central first-order Horner syndrome in the setting of a large thalamic hemorrhage with intraventricular extension.
