Abstract
We report a rare case of ipsilateral visual loss caused by compression of the optic nerve between a tuberculum sellae meningioma (TSM) and the internal carotid artery (ICA). The patient was a 70-year-old female who presented with a 2-year history of left visual disturbance with a TSM on magnetic resonance imaging. No tumor infiltration to the optic canal was identified in the preoperative images. Extended endoscopic transsphenoidal surgery was performed and showed no infiltration to the optic canal. The tumor was removed completely, and optic nerve compression was found between the TSM and atherosclerotic ICA. This report shows an atypical case in which compression of the optic nerve between a TSM and the ICA caused ipsilateral visual loss despite no infiltration to the optic canal.
