Delayed Visual Loss Following Transcranial Surgery for Tuberculum Sella Meningioma.

Menon, Sudha Menon, Girish

Abstract


Postoperative visual loss is a dreaded complication following transcranial excision of tuberculum sella meningioma. Visual deterioration is commonly noticed immediately after surgery, and delayed deterioration after 72 h is uncommon. We report a case of delayed postoperative deterioration in a 48-year-old female and discuss the possible mechanisms.
