[Post-traumatic optochiasmatic syndrome]. / Syndrome opto-chiasmatique post-traumatique.

A case of post-traumatic opto-chiasmatic syndrome is described, and the principal characteristics of the affection outlines. This rare syndrome complicates severe cranial injuries, and is simple to diagnose when confronted with a patient with bitemporal hemianopsia frequently associated with diabetes insipidus or paralysis of certain cranial nerves. Suggested mechanisms for the lesion include sagittal stretching of the chiasma or an ischemic focus.

Clinical characteristics, therapy, and prognosis of this rare affection are described though diagnosis is difficult, the presence of such a lesion should be considered in all cases of parotid tumours.
