Abstract
- The optic nerve glioma is a relatively rare pathology in children and only a few cases have been described in infants. This paper reports the symptoms of this exceptional case in a 4-month-old child and reviews the differential diagnoses at this age. Finally, we discuss the diagnosis and therapeutic possibilities.
