A diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) can be made after excluding secondary causes. As stenosis transverse sinuses is often revealed with IIH patients, sinus stenting used to release hypertension. It rare find a case leukoencephalopathy IIH. Herein, we describe diffuse IIH, which improved stent insertion in the sinus.

A 14-year-old girl with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis who also had optic disc edema, was later diagnosed Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). To our knowledge, this is the fifth case of coexistence and IIH among children, only one no obvious risk factors for IIH.

The first report of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH) was by Quinche in 1893. Throughout history it has had many names. When I was a child growing up, before we had antibiotic therapy, middle ear infections occasionally would trigger intracranial inflammation and the disease was called Otitic Hydrocephalus. Then it was called Benign Intracranial Hypertension which we now know is far fr...

objectives upon completion of this presentation, participants will be able to: 1) recognize mri appearance of the spontaneous intracranial hypotension and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri). 2) review their various clinical and imaging presentations. conclusions in this presentation we will review imaging presentations of our several proved cases. as mentioned, there are...

We would like to thank the author of the Letter to the Editor for taking the time to comment on our study. Indeed Degnan et al. recommended the MR venography for detecting cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, but in cases of pseudotumor cerebri. They wrote: “some cases of IIH (idiopathic intracranial hypertension) have identifiable etiology, such as dural venous stenosis, which has been implicated...

According to the definition, idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is a pathological state characterized by an increase in intracranial pressure; however, there are no obvious intracranial pathological processes. The pathophysiology of this disorder is not clear, although there are many reports related to it. We present an overview of possible etiopathogenetic mechanisms, clinical presenta...

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), a condition of raised intracranial pressure, is characterised by headaches and visual disturbances. Its pathogenesis is currently unknown; however, dysregulation of androgens may be implicated. Here, the authors present a case of a 22-year-old patient undergoing female-to-male (FTM) gender reassignment who developed IIH shortly after commencing testos...

Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), or pseudotumor cerebri, is a condition of elevated intracranial pressure in the absence of clinical, laboratory or radiological evidence of an intracranial space occupying lesion that can occur in the pediatric population. While IIH is more commonly recognized as a disorder of adults, it affects children of all ages and can have distinctive characteri...

Abstract Background Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is typically seen in females of childbearing period; therefore, it possible that female sex hormones have a pathogenic role IIH. Obesity considered as strong risk factor for IIH, Leptin levels the serum and CSF were found to be positively correlated with anthropological measures obesity. The leptin pathogenesis idiopathic not fully ...

The understanding of raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is increasing with the directed use telemetric ICP monitors. This case uniquely observed changes by monitoring in a patient idiopathic hypertension (IIH), who developed rapid sight-threatening disease. A lumbar drain was inserted, as temporising measure, and clamped prior to surgery. resulted rise ICP, which normalised after insertion vent...
