脳腫瘍術後視機能の推移について

Prognosis of Visual Function in Surgically Treated Intracranial Tumor

I．緒言

　今までに脳腫瘍の術前術後の視力，視野を比較した症例は多数発表されているが，これらは下垂体腫瘍に関するものが最も多いように見受けられる。われわれは比較的長期観察できた症例，chromophobe, adenoma eosino—philic adenoma, pituitary carcinoma, craniopharyn—gioma, meningioma astrocytoma, nerinomaなどにつき検討したいと思う。

Long-term visual prognosis was generally favourable in surgically treated chromophobe adenoma, eosinophilic adenoma, meningioma and, quite unexpectedly, pituitary carcinoma. Visual prognosis was rather poor in craniopharyngioma and was very poor in neurinoma cases.
