Sentences 15
PubMedID- 20170523 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) describes the clinical syndrome of raised intracranial pressure, in the absence of space-occupying lesions or vascular lesions, without enlargement of the cerebral ventricles, for which no causative factor can be identified [1].
PubMedID- 22496787 Fluid flow abnormalities are associated with complex, late onset progressive diseases such as glaucoma (aqueous outflow), idiopathic intracranial hypertension (flow changes in cerebrospinal fluid) and the non-syndromic hearing disorder dfna9 [2], [3].
PubMedID- 24145570 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is a condition of raised intracranial pressure (icp) in the absence of space occupying lesions.
PubMedID- 24228622 Of relevance to this issue is the disorder pseudotumor cerebri (pc) (also known as idiopathic intracranial hypertension), in which prolonged and demonstrably high intracranial pressures are not associated with venous leakage or demyelination.
PubMedID- 24829841 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is a rare condition, affecting about 0.9 patients per 100,000 in the us, with the majority of them being young women [1].
PubMedID- 25982204 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih), also known as primary pseudotumour cerebri and previously benign intracranial hypertension, is characterised by increased intracranial pressure (icp) and papilloedema in the setting of brain imaging with no evidence of space occupying lesion or venous thrombosis [1,2].
PubMedID- 20610512 Conclusion women with idiopathic intracranial hypertension who followed a low energy diet for three months had significantly reduced intracranial pressure compared with pressure measured in the three months before the diet, as well as improved symptoms and reduced papilloedema.
PubMedID- 24809339 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is becoming increasingly prevalent in line with the global epidemic of obesity.1 in the uk, 22.7% of people are obese (body mass index >30 kg/m2), while obesity throughout the world has doubled since 1980. clinicians’ attitudes to iih vary: in our experience, only a minority of patients are at high risk of rapid visual loss.2 the previously quoted figure of 25% developing severe permanent visual loss is probably an overestimate.2 the reality for patients is that it is a chronic condition characterised by significantly disabling headaches and psychological morbidity.
PubMedID- 24757261 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is typically a disorder of overweight females, who in addition to persistent headache may report pulse-synchronous tinnitus, or visual symptoms41.
PubMedID- 24946333 idiopathic intracranial hypertension, or pseudotumor cerebri (ptc), is a condition characterised by raised intracranial pressure not attributable to mass lesions, focal structural abnormalities or csf flow in the orientated and alert patient.
PubMedID- 21847329 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is the persistent increase in intracranial pressure in the absence of any intracranial lesions such as intracranial tumor, hydrocephalus, intracranial infections, dural sinus thrombosis or hypertensive encephalopathy.
PubMedID- 24163458 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) was first described in 1893. patients with iih have a classical picture of headache, papilledema, and a raised cerebrospinal fluid (csf) pressure of more than 25 mmhg.
PubMedID- 24288640 Aetiological theories of idiopathic intracranial hypertension and arachnoid granulations in bony erosions have been suggested [6, 7].
PubMedID- 24278732 The purpose of this study is to re-evaluate whether the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos) amongst women with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih) is higher than in the general population using the nih criteria.
PubMedID- 24250212 idiopathic intracranial hypertension (iih), aka pseudotumor cerebri, is elevated intracranial pressure (icp) in the absence of any organic lesion in the brain.
