Choristoma of the Optic Nerve: Neuroimaging Characteristics and Association with Spinal Cord Lipoma

A 54-year-old patient presented with amaurosis of the right eye that resulted from a dysontogenetic tumor of the right optic nerve. The tumor involved the intraorbital, intracanalicular and intracerebral portion of the right optic nerve, without involvement of the chiasm. Although the patient had refused further diagnostic surgical exploration, we show that it is possible to establish the diagnosis of choristoma of the optic nerve by means of modern neuroimaging techniques based on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. It appears from neuroimaging that choristomata of the optic nerve and spinal cord lipomas represent different manifestations of the same type of tumor. The neuroimaging characteristics of both kinds of tumors are discussed.
