Malignant chiasmal glioma: a rare cause of rapid visual loss.

J M Valdueza1, L Cristante, J Freitag, C Hagel, H D Herrmann.   

Abstract

The clinical, neuroradiological, and histological findings of an adult patient suffering from malignant optic glioma is reported. Rapid visual deterioration was misdiagnosed for several months until biopsy confirmed the tumor. The patient died despite radiation therapy nine months after first symptoms. Our presentation will focus on the problems of diagnosing and establishing therapeutic procedures in this rare malignant neoplasm.
