Bilateral optic canal meningiomas: a case report.

J D Trobe, J S Glaser, J D Post

    Neurosurgery
    |July 1, 1978
    PubMed
    Summary

    Bilateral optic canal meningiomas caused vision loss, with diagnosis delayed by poor imaging. Early detection requires higher clinical suspicion and better neuroradiology for timely surgical treatment.

    Area of Science:

    • Neuro-oncology
    • Ophthalmology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Meningiomas can occur in the optic canal, potentially leading to visual impairment.
    • Optic canal meningiomas are rare and can present diagnostic challenges.

    Observation:

    • A case of bilateral optic canal meningiomas causing binocular visual loss is presented.
    • Diagnosis was delayed due to inadequate and misinterpreted radiological studies.
    • The planum sphenoidale was identified as the origin of the tumors.

    Findings:

    • Accurate radiological interpretation and surgical examination are crucial for diagnosing optic canal meningiomas.
    • Review of similar cases highlights diagnostic pitfalls and successful management strategies.

    Implications:

    • Increased clinical suspicion is vital for early detection of optic canal meningiomas.
    • Advancements in neuroradiological techniques can improve diagnostic accuracy.
    • Earlier surgical intervention can lead to better visual outcomes for patients with optic canal meningiomas.
