The case is described of an optic nerve glioma, mimicking an optic nerve meningioma in a man aged 41 years. CT, MRI and DSA revealed an enhancing tumor surrounding the optic nerve. Histopathologic examination of the removed optic nerve revealed a centrally located glioma surrounded by normal optic nerve fibres.
