A diagnostic dilemma often arises when a patient with headaches is found to have optic nerve head elevation. Anomalous optic nerve head elevation often mimics papilledema and is therefore known as pseudopapilledema. In this chapter, we review the features that help to distinguish pseudopapilledema from papilledema and we discuss common causes of ...

Pseudopapilledema in Kenny–Caffey Syndrome
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 2010A 21-year-old man with Kenny–Caffey syndrome had been observed since 1993 for hyperopia. Fundus examination revealed swollen optic disks. Further examinations (fluorescein angiography, B-scan ultrasonography, and optical coherence tomography) confirmed the optic nerve head elevation.

Pseudopapilledema of Juvenile Diabetes Mellitus
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1971Optic disc edema with neovascularization, peripapillary hemorrhages, and exudates mimicking true papilledema occurred in three teen-aged patients with long-standing juvenile diabetes mellitus controlled by insulin. Despite the appearance of papilledema, the unusual signs, symptoms, and course of this syndrome suggest that it is an ischemic ...

Optic nerve drusen and pseudopapilledema.
American journal of optometry and physiological optics, 1981 A case is presented in which unilateral visible optic nerve head drusen and a contralateral visual acuity loss are associated with moderate hypermetropia and the use of oral contraceptives. Optic nerve drusen are known to be responsible for visual field losses, but a reduction in visual acuity is a rare finding.

Pseudopapilledema in neurofibromatosis type 2
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2000To report a case of neurofibromatosis type 2 with pseudopapilledema secondary to a prepapillary gliotic membrane.Case report. Results of an ocular examination and fluorescein angiography of a patient are described.Fundus examination of a 14-year-old male with neurofibromatosis type 2 revealed an irregular elevation of the optic nerve and a perifoveal ...

A diagnostic dilemma often arises when a patient with headaches is found to have optic nerve head elevation. In this chapter, we begin by reviewing the potential causes of optic nerve head elevation, which include papilledema, optic disc edema from another cause, optic nerve head infiltration, and anomalous optic nerve head elevation that mimics optic ...

Pseudopapilledema and macrocephaly in a child
Ophthalmic Paediatrics and Genetics, 1986A seven-year old female with primary megalencephaly and pseudopapilledema has been followed for over four consecutive years. Physical examinations of the patient and her family, funduscopic photography, and fluorescein angiography have failed to identify the etiology of her pseudopapilledema.

Pseudopapilledema and association with idiopathic intracranial hypertension
Child's Nervous System, 2014Diagnosing idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), or pseudotumor cerebri, can be challenging in children. Diagnosis is based on lumbar puncture, opening pressures, and appearance of the optic disk. Misdiagnosis of papilledema, a typical finding, may lead to unnecessary treatments and procedures. We report 52 children over a 6-year period to better

A Clinical Analysis of Pseudopapilledema
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1979Goldmann perimetry was performed on patients with pseudopapilledema. The cases were subdivided into those with ophthalmoscopically visible hyaline bodies (HB), (group 1) and those without (group 2). In group 1, 37 of 52 eyes (71%) demonstrated field abnormalities, including enlargement of the blind spot (68%) and various nerve fiber bundle defects (70%)
