title: [Unilateral papilledema with contralateral loss of vision].
abstract: A 46-year-old woman presented with a 4-day history of headache, dizziness and blurred vision in the left eye and a 1-year history of neck pain. Fundoscopy revealed a pale optic disc in the left eye and a swollen optic disc in the right eye. Furthermore a bilateral anosmia was evident. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a mass in the anterior cranial fossa, which was classified as a WHO grade I endotheliomatous meningeoma. A Foster Kennedy syndrome was diagnosed.
