RESUMEN
Visual dysfunction as part of cerebral palsy may be due to lesions of the retrochiasmatic visual pathways. Cranial computed tomography can reveal conspicuous and characteristic abnormalities in most patients presenting with the condition; however, in some patients the abnormalities may appear so subtle on computed tomography that they can be easily overlooked or their true significance questioned. Magnetic resonance imaging has proved to be of great value in demonstrating the neuroanatomic anomalies underlying the visual handicap of this latter group of patients, allowing for early diagnosis and precise management.
