The presentation of Horner’s syndrome following blunt trauma is uncommon, but is of important clinical significance. Identification of the constellation of signs of Horner’s syndrome should, therefore, prompt urgent neuro-radiologic imaging. Early diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment can lead to excellent outcomes in the majority of cases and prevent devastating cerebral ischaemic damage. A progressive case of Horner’s syndrome following blunt injury to the neck in an amateur snowboarder is presented.
