Abstract

To date there is no consensus regarding ophthalmology follow-up of patients with papilledema after resection of an intracranial mass. We present a case of drastically worsening papilledema after resection of an intracranial meningioma and discuss the possible mechanisms behind this. This article aims to highlight the potential utility of routine ophthalmology follow-up for patients with papilledema after resection of an intracranial mass. Further works could quantify the incidence of post-operative worsening or recurring papilledema, their association with a pathological cause, and its effect on vision.
