lüll Amaurosis in infancy due to craniopharyngioma: a not-exceptional but often misdiagnosed symptom Feletti A; Marton E; Mazzucco GM; Fang S; Longatti PNeurosurg Focus 2010[Apr]; 28 (4): E7Since children may not be able to complain of progressive reduction in optic acuity, visual assessment in infancy may present practical difficulties. The authors report a case of craniopharyngioma, which led a young child to early blindness before the correct diagnosis could be made. Similar to other reported cases, the authors found that surgery did not substantially modify the preoperative visual deficit. They conclude that minimal improvement in visual acuity can be expected despite successful microsurgical removal of the tumor.|Blindness/*diagnosis/*etiology[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Craniopharyngioma/*complications/*diagnosis/surgery[MESH]|Diagnostic Errors[MESH]|Evoked Potentials, Visual[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Hypophysectomy/methods[MESH]|Magnetic Resonance Imaging[MESH]|Pituitary Neoplasms/*complications/*diagnosis/surgery[MESH]|Preoperative Care/methods[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH]|Strabismus/*diagnosis[MESH]|Visual Acuity[MESH] |
