Paraneoplastic Diseases of Neuro-Ophthalmologic Interest | Jacobsen, Daniel M; Pomeranz, Howard D | "A number of disorders characterized by visual dysfunction, neurologic dysfunction, or both occur in the setting of known or suspected cancers but do not result from the direct effects of the tumor." |

Complications of Cancer Therapy | Mark L. Moster, MD, Thomas Jefferson University; Rod Foroozan, M.D., Baylor College of Medicine | "Patients with cancer frequently have neurologic, ophthalmologic, or neuro-ophthalmologic complications." |

|
Miscellaneous Tumors of Neuro-Ophthalmologic Interest | Benjamin M. Frishberg, M.D. | "In this chapter we consider several tumors that may produce neuro-ophthalmologic symptoms and signs that do not specifically arise from intradural neural tissue." |
5 |
|
Tumors of Cranial and Peripheral Nerves | Chesnutt, David A | "Although there are differences between the behavior of primary tumors of the cranial nerves and primary tumors of the peripheral nerves, their structural similarities permit them to be discussed together." |
6 |
|
Fungi and Mycotic Diseases | Joel M. Weinstein, MD | "Opportunistic fungal infections are common and continue to increase in frequency and severity as a consequence of the use of immunosuppressive therapy after solid-organ transplantation and for a variety of diseases, particularly cancer, and because of the increasing prevalence of the acquired immun... |

|
The Trigeminal Nerve and Its Central Connections | Grant T. Liu, MD. Professor of Neurology, University of Pennsylvania | "Because the three divisions of the trigeminal nerve run in close proximity to cranial nerves II, III, IV, and VI, sensory dysfunction in the face may be a symptom in neuro-ophthalmic patients with vision loss and eye movement disorders." |
8 |
|
Tumors Derived from Hematopoietic Cells and Tissue | John Kerrison, MD, Retina Consultants of Charleston | "Hematopoiesis is the orderly process of blood cell proliferation and maturation." |

|
Compressive and Infiltrative Optic Neuropathies | Nicholas J Volpe, MD, Northwestern University | "Compressive lesions within the orbit, the optic canal and, rarely, intracranially, may result in disc swelling (Fig. 8.1)." |

|
Cerebrovascular Disease | Valérie Biousse, MD Departments of Ophthalmology and Neurology, Emory University School of Medicine | "Cerebrovascular disease is the most commondevastatin g condition that affects the central nervous system (CNS)." |

|
Toxic and Deficiency Optic Neuropathies | Paul H. Phillips, M.D., University of Arkansas | "Physicians have known for centuries that the anterior visual pathways are vulnerable to damage from nutritional deficiency and chemicals." |

|
Tumors of the Pituitary Gland | Gittinger Jr., John W | "Tumors of the pituitary gland are so important from a neuro-ophthalmologic standpoint that they are considered in a separate chapter." |
15 |
|
Bacteria and Bacterial Diseases | Prem S Subramanian, MD, PhD, Professor of Ophthalmology, Neurology, and Neurosurgery, University of Colorado | This chapter describes various bacteria and bacterial diseases. |
16 |
|
Disorders of Pupillary Function, Accommodation, and Lacrimation | Aki Kawasaki, MD, PhD, Faculty of Biology and Medicine, University of Lausanne | "In this chapter I describe various disorders that produce dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system as it pertains to the eye and orbit, including congenital and acquired disorders of pupillary function, accommodation, and lacrimation." |
17 |
|
Nystagmus and Related Ocular Motility Disorders | John R. Leigh, MD, Professor of Neurology, Emeritus, Case Western Reserve University; Rucker, Janet C | "This chapter concerns abnormal eye movements that disrupt steady fixation and thereby degrade vision." |
18 |
|
Supranuclear and Internuclear Ocular Motility Disorders | Zee, David S; Newman-Toker David | "In this chapter, we survey clinicopathologic correlations for supranuclear ocular motor disorders." |

Tumors of the Meninges and Related Tissues: Meningiomas and Sarcomas | Cockerham, Kimberely P; Kennerdell, John S; Maroon, Joseph C; Bejjani, Ghassan K | "The meninges of the brain and spinal cord consist of three different layers: the dura mater, arachnoid (tela arachnoidea), and pia mater." |

|
Aneurysms | Steven A. Newman, M.D., University of Virginia School of Medicine | This chapter includes the history, Definition, Pathogenesis and description of a number of different aneurysms. |
21 |
|
Embryology, Anatomy, and Physiology of the Afferent Visual Pathway | Joseph F. Rizzo III, MD, Massachusetts Eye and Ear | "The brain devotes more cells and connections to vision than any other sense or motor function. This chapter presents an overview of the development, anatomy, and physiology of this extremely complex but fascinating system." |
22 |
|
Papilledema | Deborah I. Friedman, MD, MPH, Professor, Neurology & Neurotherapeutics, University of Texas Southwestern | "Papilledema is one of the most alarming signs in clinical medicine. Papilledema specifically refers to swelling of the optic disc resulting from increased intracranial pressure (ICP)." |
23 |
|
Phacomatoses | John Kerrison, MD, Retina Consultants of Charleston | "Syndromes characterized by hamartomas of the skin, eye, central nervous system (CNS), and other viscera are collectivelycalled phacomatoses (1). These disorders produce significant visual and neurologic disturbances. Although most of these syndromes arise from mutations in single genes inherited in... |

Venous Occlusive Disease | Valerie A. Purvin, MD, Indiana University | "Occlusion or insufficiency of the venous drainage in the head and neck can cause a range of neurologic and ophthal-mologic manifestations. Clinical features vary depending on the location and mechanism of occlusion." |

Brazis, MD, Mayo Clinic; Neil R Miller, M.D., Professor of Ophthalmology, Johns Hopkins University | "Viruses are important causes not only of human systemic disease but also of neurologic and visual disease. It is not the purpose of this chapter to consider all known viruses that produce human disease or to consider all diseases produced by those viruses. Instead, we will restrict this chapter to ... |
