Cavernous angioma of the optic tract.

J Zentner1, W Grodd, W Hassler.   

Abstract

A cavernous angioma of the right optic tract in a 35-year-old man is presented. The patient suffered from headaches and had a left homonymous visual field defect after subarachnoid haemorrhage and an intracerebral haematoma in the right temporomedial region, revealed by computed tomography (CT). Follow-up CT showed a small contrast-enhanced lesion in the right suprasellar and parasellar cistern. Angiography on three occasions did not reveal a vascular lesion. Magnetic resonance imaging was helpful both for diagnosis and planning surgical therapy. It showed typical signs of a cavernous angioma of the right optic tract; the diagnosis was confirmed by surgery and histological examination. This appears to be the first reported case of a cavernous angioma of the optic tract.
