29. A 31-year-old primigravid woman at 33 weeks' gestation is brought to the emergency department because of a 3-day history of a persistent headache. Neurologic examination shows right abducens nerve palsy. Further evaluation including an MRI of the brain (with venography) is suggestive of a right cavernous sinus thrombosis. Which of the following sets of structures are most likely to be affected in this patient as a result of passing through the cavernous sinus? A) Internal carotid artery, oculomotor nerve, and facial nerve B) Internal carotid artery, optic nerve, and trochlear nerve C) Oculomotor nerve, facial nerve, and hypoglossal nerve D) Oculomotor nerve, trochlear nerve, and trigeminal nerve E) Optic nerve, cochlear nerve, and oculomotor nerve
