Foster Kennedy syndrome refers to a finding of optic atrophy in one eye from direct compression of the optic nerve by a mass lesion and contralateral papilledema in the nonatrophic optic nerve caused by an increased intracranial pressure. When the fundoscopy finding is not due to a direct compressive mass, the term pseudo-Foster Kennedy syndrome is used; this can be caused by any process or processes that result in optic atrophy in one eye and optic disc edema in the other. Identifying Foster Kennedy syndrome in a patient calls for expedient neuroimaging looking for an intracranial mass lesion.

The most feared side effect is acute gastrointestinal perforation and accelerated hypertension particularly during pulse therapy. Hiccups occur less frequently but can cause high levels of discomfort to the patient.

Foster-Kennedy syndrome has been diagnosed as a direct compression of the optic nerve due to an expansive process that leads to atrophy. In the contralateral eye there is papillary oedema due to intracranial hypertension secondary to the tumour mass effect. The case is presented of a 12-year-old boy with overweight (BMI 26) with right eye papillary oedema and left optic nerve atrophy, that was casually found in an ophthalmological examination.
