Transient visual loss and isolated disk edema in juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma.

Juvenile nasopharyngeal angiofibroma is a well-described but rare benign tumor that mainly affects adolescent boys. Although it is capable of extravagant local extension and tissue destruction, the tumor is amenable to effective therapy. Ocular or visual complications have been little noted in the literature. We report a case whose sole symptom was unilateral transient visual impairment and findings were limited to a nonspecific optic disk edema.
