title: [Hemianopsia with preservation of temporal crescent and occipital infarction].
abstract: A 34-year-old man experienced a left homonymous hemianopsia due to an occipital infarction, with preservation of the temporal crescent on Goldmann perimetry. The cortical representation of the temporal crescent is discussed with regard to the location of the lesion imaged by magnetic resonance.
