Postoperative regression of opticochiasmatic astrocytoma: a case for expectant therapy.

J L Venes, J Latack, R S Kandt.   

Abstract

After incisional biopsy, an opticochiasmatic astrocytoma in a 2-year-old child with neurofibromatosis was seen to regress by computed tomographic scanning. This case illustrates the need for expectant therapy in this entity.
