Description |
Permanent vision loss following prostate surgery is extremely rare, and only anterior ischemic optic neuropathy has been reported. A case is presented of a patient who developed bilateral posterior ischemic optic neuropathy (PION) immediately following a DaVinci-assisted (robotic) laparoscopic radical prostatectomy that was complicated by perioperative hypotension and hemodilution requiring transfusion. |
