Intra-axial cortical-based tumours are rare tumours affecting children and young adults. These tumours can be classified as either low-grade or high-grade, depending on their aggressiveness and rate of growth. We report a case of homonymous hemianopia secondary to an intra-axial cortical-based tumour in a young patient. A 26-year-old lady presented with bilateral blurring of vision for three weeks associated with a headache. Visual acuity was 6/6 in both eyes. Bilateral optic nerve functions were normal. The Humphrey visual field test showed left-homonymous hemianopia. A CT scan and MRI of the brain revealed an intra-axial cortical-based tumor. Differential diagnoses include pleomorphic xanthoastrocytoma (PXA), ganglioglioma, oligodendroglioma, and dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumour (DNET). The patient was treated conservatively and closely monitored through clinic follow-up.
