title: [Empty sella turcica with intrasellar herniation of the optic chiasm].
abstract: We here present the case of a patient who starts with a progressive vision loss, observing in the radiologic exam herniation of optic chiasma in a primary empty sella turcica. Based on this case, we have performed a review of this clinical picture and point out the most important aspects in the literature.
