Abstract:This term is used by clinicians to indicate appearances suggestive of glioma, but unconnected with new growth. Such appearances are most commonly due to a chronic metastatic ophthalmitis, and it is in this sense that we employ the word, leaving out of consideration other rarer conditions which may also be mistaken for glioma-e.g., persistent hyaloid artery, tubercle of the choroid, exudative retinal disease, &c.
