We present a case of transient cortical blindness in a child following a closed head injury with a non-displaced occipital bone fracture and underlying occipital lobe contusion. We discuss the pathophysiology behind Post-traumatic transient cortical blindness, relevant investigations, and current management.1532-2653Ng, Rachel H C | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jocn.2016.08.010 | Keywords: | Occipital Bone;Skull Fractures;Child;Cortical blindness;Accidental Falls;Head injury;Child | Type: | Article |
