Abstract
A patient presenting with persistent headache of vascular quality and an intermittently progressive chiasmal syndrome had a blue-domed hemorrhagic cyst beneath the right optic nerve and underwent surgical drainage with good results. As prompt surgical intervention may provide significant return of visual function, detailed diagnostic evaluation of similar cases is recommended.This publication has 8 references indexed in Scilit:
