摘要
We present a case of an adult patient experiencing progressive visual loss. An initial presentation was concerning for neuromyelitis optica with optic chiasm involvement. However, persistent contrast enhancement observed in follow-up brain and orbit images raised suspicion for optic tract malignant neoplasm. Histopathological evolution of optic nerve biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of an optic chiasm glioma. The patient was then referred to oncology for chemotherapy.
