Traumatic occipital meningoencephalocele presenting with homonymous hemianopia in a professional driver

Background: This study presents the case of a 32-year-old male who is a chronic headache sufferer. He is a professional driver who presented with homonymous hemianopia secondary to a traumatic occipital meningoencephalocele. This is the first time such an association has been reported. Conclusions: The complete lack of previous visual symptoms supports the belief of late development of the hemianopia. However, the chronicity and the nature of the patients' headaches could have justified further investigations in the past.
