PURPOSE: Visual acuity (VA) disturbance other than field defect is important in evaluating
patients with pituitary macroadenoma. The purpose of this study was to evaluate MR …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Contrast-enhanced FIESTA can depict anterior optic
pathways in patients with large suprasellar tumors. We assessed whether the degree of kink …

In this study we aimed to evaluate and quantify optic nerve damage caused by long standing
compressive pituitary macroadenomas with conventional (ophthalmoscopy) and modern …

Objective: To investigate clinical and MRI findings that are predictive of both visual loss in
patients with pituitary adenomas and visual recovery after treatment. Design: Cohort study …

Purpose: To describe the patterns of visual loss associated with pituitary macroadenomas
compressing the anterior visual pathway. Method: A prospective survey of 29 patients with …

Background With pituitary macroadenomas, there is a high incidence of visual loss from
optic pathway compression. Surgical removal of the tumor usually prevents progression and …

Background The most common objective manifestations of pituitary adenoma are visual,
including impairment of a visual field and loss of acuity. The characteristic visual field defect …

Our purpose was to analyse the demographics, prevalence and pattern of visual field
defects in patients with pituitary adenoma. We prospectively recruited 103 consecutive …

OBJECTIVE. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that bitemporal
hemianopsia (BHA) is the most common visual field (VF) defect in patients with pituitary …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Edema-like change along the optic tract commonly occurs
in association with craniopharyngiomas. The aim of this study was to clarify whether it occurs …
