title: Radiation-induced optic neuritis after pituitary adenoma radiosurgery in a patient with multiple sclerosis: case report.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe a rare case of optic neuritis onset after Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Nine years after transsphenoidal subtotal resection of a pituitary adenoma, this 43-year-old woman had elevated serum prolactin levels and headaches.
  
  
  METHODS
  Gamma Knife stereotactic radiosurgery to residual pituitary tumor.
