Delayed ischemic optic neuropathy after surgery on skull base meningiomas successfully treated with nimodipine and rheological therapy: report of two cases.

E van Lindert, W Hassler, A D Saletta.   

Abstract

Two patients operated on because of skull base meningiomas experienced delayed ischemic optic neuropathy with loss of vision in one eye on days 6 and 12 after surgery. Treatment with nimodipine and rheological therapy was effective in restoring visual acuity. Possible pathophysiological mechanisms and treatment options are discussed.
