Progressive visual loss due to glioblastoma: normal neuroroentgenorgraphic studies

T C Spoor et al. Arch Neurol. 1981 Mar.

Abstract

A case of progressive bilateral visual loss of abrupt onset an rapid course is described. Extensive neurorentgenographic evaluation was normal, and the results of exploratory craniotomy were unremarkable, except for a slight ovality of the left optic nerve. A biopsy of the left optic nerve showed a glioblastoma, apparently originating in the anterior optic pathways.
