Core Tip This case report describes a rare intraosseous lipoma of the sphenoid bone causing compressive optic neuropathy and reversible vision loss in a middle-aged patient. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested a lipomatous lesion, but definitive diagnosis required intraoperative findings and histopathological confirmation of an adipose tumor of bone. Successful optic nerve decompression led to significant visual recovery. This case underscores the need to consider intraosseous lipoma in the differential diagnosis of optic nerve compression and to correlate MRI with surgical and pathological findings.
