51 Pattern Electroretinograms for the Detection of Neural Loss in Patients with Permanent Temporal Visual Field Defect from Chiasmal CompressionSeveral studies have indicated that damage to the retinal ganglion cells can be revealed by pattern electroretinogram (PERG) recordings particularly in patients with glaucoma. The pattern of neural loss in patients with previous chiasmal compression and long-standing field defects may serve as a mod...Pattern Electroretinogram; Band Atrophy of the Optic Nerve; Chiasmal Compression; Pituitary Tumor; Retinal Ganglion Cell LossNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
52 Systemic Disorders With Optic Nerve and Retinal FindingsThis 57-year-old man had a neuro-ophthalmology consult, requested the night before his 2-cm pituitary tumor was to be resected. His examination revealed his acuities to be 20/70 OU, with a visual field not consistent with chiasmal compression.

53 Walsh & Hoyt: Clinical Manifestations, Treatment, and Prognosis According to SiteDolichoectasia of the intracranial portions ofthe ICAs and their branches may be asymptomatic, or it may cause a variety ofsymptoms and signs that are related to the location and extent of the condition. Thus, dolichoectasia of the petrous portion ofthe ICA may produce lower cranial neuropathies, wh...Vascular Diseases; Aneurysm; Clinical Manifestations; Treatment; Prognosis; DolichoectasiaNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu
54 Walsh & Hoyt: General ConsiderationsThe characteristic pituitary tumor is the adenoma. Uncommon in children, its incidence increases with age and may approach 30% in an older population. Pituitary adenomas constitute 612% of all symptomatic intracranial tumors. Most are sporadic, but pituitary adenomas are a component of multiple endo...Neoplasms; Head and Neck Neoplasms; Pituitary Gland; General ConsiderationsNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu

57 Finite Element Modeling of Chiasmal Compression: Nearer to an Understanding of Bitemporal Hemianopia?The precise mechanism of bitemporal hemianopia (BH) in the context of chiasmal compression is unknown. Previous theories have suggested that the blood supply of the crossing fibres is selectively compromised or that crossing fibres are vulnerable because they occupy the centre of the chiasm where th...Optic Chiasm; Bitemporal Hemianopia; Finite Element Modeling; Chiasmal Compression; Pituitary TumorNeuro-ophthalmology Virtual Education Library: NOVEL http://NOVEL.utah.edu

60 Walsh & Hoyt: TumorsThe most common tumors associated with aneurysms are pituitary adenomas and meningiomas. Most patients with an intracranial tumor and an aneurysm initially develop symptoms and signs from the tumor. Neuroimaging studies may identify an asymptomatic aneurysm.
