Metamorphopsia and permanent cortical blindness after a posterior fossa tumor.

R H Brau, J Lameiro, A V Llaguno, N Rifkinson.   

Abstract

A case of posterior fossa tumor associated with supratentorial symptoms is presented. The pattern of symptoms that developed after operation follow the description of metamorphospsia. The condition progressed to permanent cortical blindness. Tumoral vasospasm is suggested as a possible etiological mechanism for the clinical picture.
