Idiopathic intracranial hypertension and visual function.
BACKGROUND Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is a relatively common condition (incidence up to 19/100 000/year in the high-risk group of obese women in reproductive age range) causing headaches with papilloedema. Detailed investigations are required to exclude other causes of raised intracranial pressure. The condition may be self-limiting or enter a chronic phase with significant morbidity ...
متن کاملHematological parameters in idiopathic intracranial hypertension
In this study, we investigated the relationship between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure and hematological parameters in twenty one idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) patients recruited from the patients’ records of Duzce University and Bezmialem Foundation University Medical Faculty Hospitals between 2009 and 2011. We carried blood and CSF examinations to exclude other disorders know...
متن کاملIdiopathic Intracranial Hypertension: Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Clinical Features and Contemporary Management
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a syndrome of increased intracranial pressure without evident cause. The exact pathogenesis of IIH remains elusive but it is also plausible that the syndrome represents the common final pathway of several different mechanisms. IIH has an estimated incidence of 1-3 per 100,000 and a predilection for obese women of childbearing age. Presentation invol...
متن کاملPediatric idiopathic intracranial hypertension: clinical and demographic features.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a clinical condition characterized by elevated intracranial pressure and absence of clinical, laboratory or radiographic evidence of central nervous system infection, vascular malformation, intracranial space occupying lesion or hydrocephalus. In the last years the raising understanding of pediatric IIH, especially concerning its demographics and ep...
متن کاملIdiopathic intracranial hypertension.
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is common in obese women and can lead to significant visual impairment. First described more than 100 years ago, the cause of the disorder remains unknown. Despite a multitude of proposed links, the aetiology has never been established. Impairment of cerebrospinal-fluid reabsorption is the most likely underlying pathophysiological cause of the raised pressur...
