An otherwise healthy 63-year-old woman was given a diagnosis of normal tension glaucoma (NTG) in the right eye (OD) 2 months before presentation. Standard computerized perimetry showed a unilateral right hemianoptic temporal field defect. On examination visual acuity was preserved, intraocular pressure was normal, there was a right relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) with an asymmetric cupping of the disc, but no pallor. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a meningioma compressing the right optic nerve at its junction with the chiasm. Compressive disorders on the anterior chiasm, albeit rarely, may cause cupping of the disc and unilateral temporal visual field defect (junctional scotoma of Traquair) with normal visual acuity that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of NTG.
一名63岁的健康女性在就诊前2个月被诊断为右眼(OD)正常眼压性青光眼(NTG)。标准电脑视野检查显示右侧单眼偏盲性颞侧视野缺损。检查发现视力保留,眼压正常,右侧有相对性传入性瞳孔障碍(RAPD),视盘杯盘比不对称,但无苍白。脑部磁共振成像(MRI)显示在视交叉与视神经交界处有一个脑膜瘤压迫右侧视神经。视交叉前部的压迫性病变虽然罕见,但可能导致视盘杯状凹陷和单眼颞侧视野缺损(Traquair交界性暗点),视力正常,在NTG的鉴别诊断中应予以考虑。
