Abstract

Three patients presenting with visual failure had MRIs with hypersignal extending from the region of the optic chiasm along both optic tracts in 2 cases, and along 1 optic tract in the 3rd. In all patients intrinsic tumor of the chiasm was the most likely diagnosis based on MRI appearances, but all 3 had craniopharyngioma.
