  • Title: Intraocular extension of optic nerve meningioma in a case of neurofibromatosis.
    Author: Cibis GW, Whittaker CK, Wood WE.
    Journal: Arch Ophthalmol; 1985 Mar; 103(3):404-6. PubMed ID: 3919697.
    Abstract:
    A case of intraocular extension of primary optic nerve meningioma occurred in a 13-year-old girl with neurofibromatosis. An anomalous disc in the involved blind eye was diagnosed as optic nerve glioma at 2 1/2 years of age. The aggressive nature of meningiomas in the young and the long time period involved account for this rare occurrence of direct intraocular extension.
