Title: Chiasmatic cavernoma haemorrhage: To treat or not to treat? Concerning a clinical case. Author: Marnat G, Gimbert E, Berge J, Rougier MB, Molinier S, Dousset V. Journal: Neurochirurgie; 2015 Oct; 61(5):343-6. PubMed ID: 26249271. Abstract: We present the case of a 43-year-old man with acute visual loss due to an optic chiasm cavernoma. Our clinical and imaging findings quickly led us to this diagnosis. As a clinical improvement spontaneously occurred soon after the initial diagnosis, we decided not to perform any surgical treatment.
