Two young women with idiopathic pseudotumor cerebri were treated successfully with lumboperitoneal shunts. Their shunts were removed electively several years later, following which there was rapid increase of cerebrospinal fluid pressure. In one patient, rapid increase of intracranial pressure resulted in bilateral visual loss.

Pseudotumor cerebri, a disorder of intracranial pressure regulation, is characterized by elevated cerebrospinal fluid pressures. The symptoms and signs are those of elevated intracranial pressure alone. Extensive endocrine studies in patients with the primary disease have generally been normal.

This paper reports the case of a 27-year-old obese female who presented for routine eye examination with bilateral disc edema. A preliminary diagnosis of pseudotumor cerebri was confirmed following neurologic examination. Causative mechanisms and treatment alternatives of this syndrome, as well as differential diagnosis of the swollen disc, will be ...

To discuss the current standard in diagnosis and treatment of pseudotumor cerebri (PTC), the syndrome of increased intracranial pressure without a brain tumor. Since PTC is a diagnosis of exclusion, the differential diagnostic work-up is of special importance.Modern imaging techniques have facilitated the differential diagnosis of PTC.

Probable cases of pseudotumor cerebri were described more than a hundred years ago. A great deal of controversy existed regarding proper terminology and disease characterization. The clinical entity was doubtful before the routine use of ventriculography in the 1930s.

Although pseudotumor cerebri is not the primary subject for the neurosurgical treatment, it is of clinical significance on differentiating from brain tumors and other similar lesions. The literatures concerning its clinical features and pathophysiology are reviewed with short summary of our eighteen cases. The incidence of pseudotumor cerebri, based on

Pseudotumor cerebri is a condition characterized by raised intracranial pressure, normal CSF contents, and normal brain with normal or small ventricles on imaging studies. It affects predominantly obese women of childbearing age; however, its incidence seems to be increasing among adolescent and children. While among older children the clinical picture

Pseudotumor cerebri is a perplexing syndrome of increased intra-cranial pressure without a space-occupying lesion. The terminology for the disorder has changed over the years and the diagnostic criteria revised to reflect advances in diagnostic technology and insights into the disease process.

Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) is a syndrome of increased intracranial pressure without hydrocephalus or mass lesion and with normal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) composition. Although often considered to be "idiopathic," detailed investigation has revealed a high incidence of venous outflow abnormalities in PTC syndrome patients.

The case records of three patients with the diagnosis pseudotumor cerebri are presented. In addition, data from the records of three other children are included to give a series of six patients. The clinical picture and the laboratory data are summarized and compared with other reports.
