  • Title: Cystic suprasellar and retrosellar arachnoiditis: a clinical and pathologic follow-up case report.
    Author: Iraci G, Giordano R, Gerosa M, Zampieri P, Tomazzoli-Gerosa L.
    Journal: Ann Ophthalmol; 1979 Aug; 11(8):1175-9. PubMed ID: 556144.
    Abstract:
    A patient, previously operated upon for a supra-and retrosellar arachnoid cyst, had again to undergo surgery for a recurrence and died in the early postoperative course. The gross and microscopic pathologic evidence obtained through necropsy is described: it seems to confirm the inflammatory nature of the arachnoid cyst, thus legitimating the term cystic optochiasmatic arachnoiditis used for the description of the same case in a previous report.
