Bilateral sectoranopia caused by bilateral geniculate body infarction in a 14-year-old boy with inflammatory bowel disease.

摘要

Bilateral lesions of the lateral geniculate bodies are rare and produce unusual field defects that can be predicted on the basis of their vascular anatomy. We report a rare case of bilateral sectoranopic visual field defects caused by bilateral infarction of the lateral geniculate nucleus in a 14-year-old boy with inflammatory bowel disease and recurrent pancreatitis.
