Normal Pressure Pseudotumor Cerebri: A Series of Six Patients.
AIM Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) is a condition characterized by symptoms and signs of increased intracranial pressure (ICP) with no intracranial mass or hydrocephalus, and with normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition. A variant of PTC known as "Normal Pressure Pseudotumor Cerebri" has the same features of PTC except for normal opening pressure. MATERIAL AND METHODS This is a series of 6 pa...
متن کاملContinuous intracranial pressure monitoring: a last resort in pseudotumor cerebri.
I n patients with pseudotumor cerebri, it is critical to intervene surgically if visual loss continues despite medical therapy (1). This sounds like a simple rule to follow, but in reality, the decision to recommend surgery can be fraught with uncertainty. The essential problem is that if one gives medical therapy a chance to work, it may not be possible to snatch the bacon from the fire. By th...
متن کاملSutural diastasis caused by pseudotumor cerebri.
The diagnosis of pseudotumor cerebri is based on the triad of: (1) papilloedema, (2) elevated intracranial pressure with a normal cerebrospinal constituency and (3) normal central nervous system imaging studies. However, the diagnosis of pseudotumor cerebri is not always straightforward. We report a 19-year-old morbidly obese girl who developed pseudotumor cerebri associated wit...
متن کاملLymphomatosis Cerebri
Lymphomatosis cerebri is considered a diffuse form of primary central nervous system lymphoma and very rare. It is not well recognized and may be misdiagnosed with infiltrating tumors, degenerative disorders, ischemic diseases, and infectious diseases developed in the brain. Awareness of the possibility of this rare disease and early biopsy are required for differential diagnosis and preventing...
متن کاملInspiration by Magellanic penguins: reduced swimming effort when under pressure
Some marine mammals may increase their underwater locomotor efficiency by taking down little air for dives and descending passively, although at the point of maximum depth they presumably have to use energy to counteract the downthrust, to stop themselves sinking further. Birds, having considerable quantities of body-associated air, would appear not to have this option. However, measurements of...
