  "abstract": "Purpose: In this case report, we present a patient with an intraosseous mass causing compressive left optic neuropathy that was determined to be intraosseous sarcoidosis masquerading as a meningioma. Observations: A 72 year old male presented with vision loss in the left eye following recent cataract surgery. The patient underwent a modified left orbitozygomatic craniotomy for gross total resection and debulking of the left sphenoid wing/clinoidal intraosseous mass and decompression of the left optic nerve. Postoperatively, his vision was stable with visual acuity of the left eye 20/80, with a persistent positive relative afferent pupillary defect. Conclusion and importance: This case highlights the importance of adding sarcoidosis to the differential diagnosis of any intracranial osseous pathology causing vision loss, even in the absence of systemic disease.",
