Anterior chiasmal optic nerve avulsion.
In a case of traumatic avulsion of the optic nerve at the anterior chiasm, MR imaging provided highly specific images of the injury site, including the absence of the optic nerve within the optic canal and the point of transection at the anterior portion of the chiasm. This was confirmed clinically and histopathologically. MR imaging should be considered in cases of suspected chiasmal injury.
متن کاملOptic Nerve, Chiasmal, and Hypothalamic Tumors
Gliomas are the most common tumors in the optic nerve, chiasmal, and hypothalamic regions of the central nervous system (CNS). As such, they are the focus of this chapter. For completeness, the less common tumors of these regions—meningiomas and craniopharyngiomas—are also covered. Germ cell tumors can also occur in this region but are discussed in Chapter 7. GLIOMAS Gliomas that affect the opt...
متن کاملChiasmal enlargement and optic nerve enhancement on magnetic resonance imaging in leber hereditary optic neuropathy.
May and colleagues each reported a case of endogenous endophthalmitis in patients with gingival disease that progressed to an abscess. In the latter case, the patient also had undergone a cavity filling 7 days before onset of symptoms. Our case of endogenous endophthalmitis was in an immunocompetent individual who underwent routine dental cleaning 10 days before seeing an ophthalmologist. She d...
