[Traumatic bitemporal hemianopsia (author's transl)].

Abstract

The authors report a case of traumatic bitemporal hemianopsia, without any macroscopic lesion in the chiasma. At this juncture, they argue about the different mechanisms which may occur in the pathogenesis of these lesions, and they dwell on the indirect mechanism of the quartering of the optic nerves, which is responsible for a tear in the chiasma.
