  • Title: Computed tomography of an optic chiasm glioma in an elderly patient.
    Author: Jamshidi S, Korengold M, Kobrine AI.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1984 Jan; 21(1):83-7. PubMed ID: 6689816.
    Abstract:
    A 75-year-old white woman, otherwise healthy, developed progressively reduced visual acuity primarily in her left eye over 2 months. A computed tomography scan of the head demonstrated a moderately large, round, circumscribed, benign-appearing suprasellar mass that was enhanced with infusion of contrast medium. At craniotomy, a glioma of the optic chiasm that extended into the left optic nerve was observed.
