Meningococcal B vaccine-associated papillophlebitis and cilioretinal artery occlusion
Vaccine-induced optic neuritis is a known subtype of optic neuritis that has been reported following the administration of various types of vaccines, both viral and bacterial. Ocular symptoms vary significantly and can result in permanent vision loss. There has been only one case of optic neuritis following meningococcal B vaccine (Bexsero; GlaxoSmithKline, London, UK) administration that was reported on the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (2016, VAERS ID 686394), but the details of the event are not thoroughly explained.Delayed-onset abducens nerve palsy following parafalcine meningioma complicated by subdural hematoma
Meningiomas are slow-growing, benign brain tumors accounting for approximately 20% of primary intracranial masses.1 They may remain asymptomatic for long periods of time and can present with headaches, seizures, and other more site-specific symptoms. Although they are highly vascular structures, meningiomas do not typically produce subdural hematoma (SDH).2 Only 38 cases of meningioma associated with acute SDH have been reported in the English literature.1 We report a delayed-onset abducens nerve palsy due to an SDH associated with a parafalcine meningioma.
