The meningiomas are the most common benign intracranial tumors after the glial tumors, they have a slow growth, and, although they can arise from the fibroblasts of the dura mater, the majority comes from the arachnoid cells. Three patients affected by this illness, with ophthalmologic manifestations due to the compromise of the visual pathway, are presented here. They were surgically treated; one of them evolved satisfactorily, the other two presented sequelae as a result of the long evolution of the tumor. |
