Résumé

A 58-year-old man presented with a complaint of subjective visual field loss on the right side and hypertensive emergency. Examination revealed a right homonymous hemianopia. Computed tomography imaging revealed an acute stroke of the left lateral geniculate body. A few months later, automated perimetry revealed characteristic visual field changes associated with this lesion. In this report, the anatomy, pathophysiology, clinical findings, and previously reported etiologies of lateral geniculate body lesions are reviewed.
