| Abstract (English): |
Foster-Kennedy syndrome is a condition characterized by monocular vision loss caused by direct pressure by a tumor on the optic nerve. Subsequently, due to intracranial hypertension, the contralateral optic nerve is affected, causing progressive vision loss. In the case we will discuss, we present a patient with vision loss and optic nerve atrophy secondary to idiopathic intracranial hypertension, who subsequently began to experience progressive contralateral monocular vision loss, mimicking a Foster-Kennedy syndrome. The patient ultimately required a ventriculoperitoneal shunt due to a high risk of total blindness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
