Differential immunologic effects of language-dominant and nondominant cerebral resections.

abstract：:Three patients presented with unilateral progressive optic neuropathy. None of these patients had signs of symptoms referable to the chiasm or eye, thus confining their decline in vision to the optic nerve. Clinical and neuroradiographic evidence suggested a meningioma involving the optic nerve at the orbital-canalicu...
