Basal encephaloceles are uncommon malformations that are usually congenital in nature, although, occasionally, they can be traumatic. When they are congenital, they are associated with skull and facial midline defects, central nervous system abnormalities, and possible ocular and visual problems. The authors present a case of an adult male with a basal encephalocele who presented with a bitemporal hemianopsia. Ocular abnormalities, visual loss, and visual field deficits have previously been reported in patients with basal encephalocele; however, there does not appear to be any reported cases with formal visual field testing to demonstrate specific defects such as a bitemporal hemianopsia.
基底脑膨出是一种罕见的畸形，通常为先天性，不过偶尔也可能由外伤引起。先天性基底脑膨出与颅骨和面部中线缺损、中枢神经系统异常以及可能的眼部和视觉问题相关。本文作者报告了一例成年男性基底脑膨出患者，该患者表现为双颞侧偏盲。此前已有关于基底脑膨出患者出现眼部异常、视力丧失和视野缺损的报道；然而，似乎尚无通过正规视野检查来证实双颞侧偏盲等特定缺陷的病例报道。
