| Abstract |
We have recently encountered two patients who presented with ophthalmoscopically unusual optic disc changes, and who were found to have intracranial subarachnoid cysts. The discs appeared chronically swollen, had microtelangiectatic vessels on the surface and leaked fluorescein. This report documents unusual swollen discs in patients with no clinical evidence of increased intracranial pressure yet who are found to have intracranial subarachoid cysts by computed tomography. |
