摘要: Optic nerve sheath meningiomas (ONSMs) represent one-third of all optic tumors, but they account for only 1–2% intracranial meningiomas. Although these tumors are rare, an important clinical entity because if not treated, slow progressive tumor growth with increasing visual loss will lead to unilateral or even bilateral blindness [38, 44].
