Crossed-quadrant homonymous hemianopsia.
This case report illustrates the clinicopathological correlation between the anatomic defect of bilateral occipital lobe infarction with crossed-quadrant homonymous hemianopsia that resulted from a cervical spine injury. Routine ophthalmological and neuroradiological investigations were undertaken, including magnetic resonance imaging scanning, that demonstrate some important characteristics of this rare field defect.
