Abstract

Abstract : Secondary optic atrophy can be due to metastatic lesion in the brain. High index of suspicion is necessary in secondary optic atrophy as the lesions can mimic various benign conditions like tuberculoma. We are presenting a case of secondary optic atrophy due to bronchogenic carcinoma where initially the lesion resembled tuberculoma closely
