Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:Optic nerve glioma is a common finding in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1). Although dural ectasia of the optic nerve is encountered rarely, it has to be considered in the differential diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Three patients affected by NF-1 were examined sequentially by CT and MRI. RESULTS:Computed tomography demonstrated nonprogressing enlargement of the anterior optic pathways. Magnetic resonance imaging displayed widening of the perioptic dural sheath without any suggestion of tumor. CONCLUSION:These findings are compatible with meningocele or dural ectasia of the optic nerve sheath. This entity represents a differential diagnosis to optic glioma in patients with NF-1.
