  • Title: Visual epilepsy in glioblastoma multiforme.
    Author: Chong PK, Loo AV.
    Journal: Med J Malaysia; 2008 Dec; 63(5):406-7. PubMed ID: 19803301.
    Abstract:
    We report a 33-year-old Chinese gentleman who presented with visual epilepsy and symptoms of raised intracranial pressure in which clinical examination revealed normal visual fields and acuity despite Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) brain showing large contrast enhancing mass at the right occipital lobe. Craniotomy and excision of tumour was done and the histology confirmed glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). He completed radiotherapy and recovered well except developing left inferior homonymous quadrantropia post operatively which improved with time.
