Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Foster Kennedy syndrome classically occurs in frontal space-occupying lesions (SOL). It describes the appearance of optic atrophy in one eye and optic nerve swelling in the other. Optic atrophy occurs due to direct compression from lesion (on the ipsilateral side) and optic nerve head swelling occurs due to increased intracranial tension due to mass effect (on the contralateral side).
CASE REPORT: We report a case of a 37-year-old female presenting with a right SOL, yet left optic nerve atrophy and right optic nerve head swelling; inverse Foster Kennedy syndrome.
CONCLUSION: Inverse Foster Kennedy syndrome is a rare entity that should be taken into consideration when reviewing a patient with optic atrophy in one eye and swelling in the other.
