Abstract
|
|
|
|
Visual loss is one of the cardinal symptoms of intracranial meningioma. While meningioma located in optic nerve sheath, parasellar region, and medial sphenoidal wing causes visual loss by its direct compressive effect, large intracranial meningioma in other region can also produce visual loss indirectly by elevating intracranial pressure. Large intracranial meningioma usually results in headache, seizure, or other localized symptoms depending on the tumor location, but tumor in certain location may produce isolated visual loss. We report here a patient with huge intracranial meningioma presented with isolated bilateral visual loss.
