Neuroimaging showed a large petroclival meningioma with secondary obstructive hydrocephalus. She underwent staged surgical resections with near-gross total tumor resection. The patient subsequently developed new cranial nerve VI and VIII deficits. We also include a patient perspective of her condition as a unique aspect of the evaluation of PCM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>PCM can present with multiple progressive cranial neuropathies due to tumor effects or as a consequence of surgical or radiation therapy. We believe that including a patient perspective in clinical reports might improve physician empathy and understanding of the patient\u2019s condition and course beyond the traditional evaluation and management paradigms for brain tumors including PCM.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fopht.2026.1841667","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]],"date-time":"2026-05-21T04:48:51Z","timestamp":1779338931000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Case Report: Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations of petroclival meningioma"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Natalie","family":"Lanners","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"McGovern Medical School, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ritu","family":"Sampige","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Safa","family":"Ibrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Blanton Eye Institute, Houston Methodist Hospital","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dina","family":"Abdelsalam","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Blanton Eye Institute, Houston Methodist Hospital","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andrew G.","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Blanton Eye Institute, Houston Methodist Hospital","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]},{"name":"Departments of Ophthalmology, Neurology, and Neurosurgery, Weill Cornell Medicine","place":["New York, NY, United States"]},{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, Cullen Eye Institute, Baylor College of Medicine","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]},{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center","place":["Houston, TX, United States"]},{"name":"Texas A&M College of Medicine","place":["Bryan, TX, United States"]},{"name":"Department of Ophthalmology, University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics","place":["Iowa City, IA, United States"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otc.2015.02.007","article-title":"Petroclival meningiomas","volume":"48","author":"Hunter","year":"2015","journal-title":"Otolaryngol Clin North Am"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00701-020-04262-4","article-title":"A clinical study of ocular motor nerve functions after petroclival meningioma resection","volume":"162","author":"Wang","year":"2020","journal-title":"Acta Neurochir (Wien)"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"40","DOI":"10.3171\/2013.8.JNS13535","article-title":"True petroclival meningiomas: Results of surgical management.
