Long‐term visual outcome after chemotherapy for optic pathway glioma in children: Site and age are strongly predictive

Abstract

Risk factors for long-term visual deterioration are young age, chiasmatic/hypothalamic tumor site, and intraconal tumor site for the involved eye. The most common visual outcome for children with OPG after treatment with chemotherapy is stability. This stability is maintained over the long term for >90% of children without these risk factors.
