[Perimetric diagnosis of chiasmal injury after contusion of skull and brain (author's transl)].
After a discussion of the pathomechanism of skull trauma by a blow leading to chiasmal lesion, frontobasal injuries of the skull are considered; it is shown that typical defects of the visual field resulting from chiasmal damage can be revealed not only in cases of serious industrial or traffic accidents with brain concussion and skull base fracture, but also following minor injuries without unconsciousness and radiologically visible bone fractures.
