We aimed to present a case with acute lymphoblastic leukemia who developed vincristine-induced bilateral ptosis and external ophthalmoplegia and treated successfully with pyridoxine and pyridostigmine. Pyridostigmine and pyridoxine are promising treatment options to recover vincristine-induced neuropathy.
