Chiasmal glioma in spasmus nutans: a cautionary note

Michael C Brodsky et al. J Neuroophthalmol. 2014 Sep.

Abstract

: We diagnosed chiasmal glioma in an 8-month-old infant who had spasmus nutans that spontaneously resolved. Magnetic resonance imaging showed no interval change in tumor size over the next 8 months. Clinical resolution of spasmus nutans does not preclude chiasmal glioma as the underlying cause.
