Department of Ophthalmology, Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical Center, Jerusalem, Israel. eblumenthal@md.huji.ac.il ABSTRACT: PURPOSE: To demonstrate that slow-growing intracranial suprasellar mass lesions can be associated with optic disc cupping, clinically indistinguishable from glaucomatous optic neuropathy. CASES: At a neuro-ophthalmology tertiary clinic, a retrospective chart review identified four patients of […]
