[Homonymous hemianopsia due to chiasmal compression by intracranial aneurysm (author's transl)]. 1976

T Sato, and N Kodama, and J Suzuki

Eight cases of homonymous hemianopsia due to chiasmal compression by intracranial aneurysms have been reported in the literatures. Two similar cases were experienced in our clinic and reported. Of the total 10 cases, 8 were giant aneurysms--over 2 cm in diameter--and 9 cases were aneurysm developing medially from the internal carotid artery. Visual disturbances in all the 10 cases were incongruous homonymous hemianopsia without macula sparing. It should be noted that the existence of aneurysm is possible, in patients with homonymous hemianopsia, even when there is no other clinical evidence of mass lesion.

D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009897 Optic Chiasm The X-shaped structure formed by the meeting of the two optic nerves. At the optic chiasm the fibers from the medial part of each retina cross to project to the other side of the brain while the lateral retinal fibers continue on the same side. As a result each half of the brain receives information about the contralateral visual field from both eyes.

D002532 Intracranial Aneurysm Abnormal outpouching in the wall of intracranial blood vessels. Most common are the saccular (berry) aneurysms located at branch points in CIRCLE OF WILLIS at the base of the brain. Vessel rupture results in SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGE or INTRACRANIAL HEMORRHAGES. Giant aneurysms (>2.5 cm in diameter) may compress adjacent structures, including the OCULOMOTOR NERVE.

D005260 Female Females
D006423 Hemianopsia Partial or complete loss of vision in one half of the visual field(s) of one or both eyes. Subtypes include altitudinal hemianopsia, characterized by a visual defect above or below the horizontal meridian of the visual field. Homonymous hemianopsia refers to a visual defect that affects both eyes equally, and occurs either to the left or right of the midline of the visual field. Binasal hemianopsia consists of loss of vision in the nasal hemifields of both eyes. Bitemporal hemianopsia is the bilateral loss of vision in the temporal fields. Quadrantanopsia refers to loss of vision in one quarter of the visual field in one or both eyes.
