Description
Summary:Capillary hemangiomas (CH) are benign proliferative vascular neoplasms commonly present in skin and soft tissues but rarely found intracranially. We describe a case of a 14-year-old male patient with histologically proven CH of the optic nerve, who underwent surgical resection of the lesion due to progressive visual loss. Imaging studies revealed a cystic-solid formation in the suprasellar region lateralized to the right and located above the pituitary gland. This case shows that CH may originate from the optic nerve, leading to its gradual compression and causing optic neuropathy. While the correct differential diagnosis on the MRI may be difficult, surgical treatment is warranted in cases of progressive visual decline.
