The lesion was carefully mobilized circumferentially using bipolar cautery to minimize damage to normal cortex. The optical cortex and optic radiations nearby were at risk and the result of injury would be a visual field defect. Normally, the brain tissue at this level would be clean and white, but hemosiderin pigment from chronic minor leakage around the lesion has stained the adjacent tissue.
