Survey of Ophthalmology, 1979
The authors evaluate the case of a 20-year-old, four-month-pregnant woman who presented with papilledema and visual field loss, and developed headache, intermittent diplopia and impairment of color vision over the next month. The procedures and considerations leading to the diagnosis of pseudotumor cerebri are discussed, as are the various modes of ...

Pseudotumor Cerebri Pathophysiology
Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 2014Pseudotumor cerebri syndrome ( PTCS ) is an uncommon disorder of raised intracranial pressure of unknown etiology. The signs and symptoms have been well described but the pathogenesis remains a mystery. Most of the evidence suggests increased resistance to cerebrospinal fluid outflow as being

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2016
Recent findings in the literature regarding the epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment of pediatric pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) are described. In the past, children with PTC have been treated like adult cases; however, the literature highlights important differences between children and adults with PTC.Revised diagnostic criteria define an opening ...

Surgical Neurology, 1987
Pseudotumor cerebri is characterized by increased intracranial pressure and papilledema, with an essentially normal neurologic examination. The major complication is visual loss. Many patients will have spontaneous remissions. The main method of following patients with pseudotumor cerebri is repeated visual field measurements.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1994
Pseudotumor cerebri is the most appropriate term yet devised for classifying clinical patterns marked by papillary edema, uni- or bilateral, without major clinical signs and with normally sized cerebral ventricles, in which clinical or radiological investigations have ruled out the presence of a space occupying lesion of infective process.

International Ophthalmology Clinics, 2012
Although PTC most frequently occurs in obese females of childbearing age, the syndrome occurs in children as well.(3),(5) Prepubertal children with PTC have a lower incidence of obesity compared with adults and there is no sex predilection. The onset of puberty is best defined by the onset of secondary sexual characteristics such has menarche, pubic ...

The Pseudotumor Cerebri Syndrome
Neurologic Clinics, 2014The pseudotumor cerebri syndrome may be idiopathic or arise from a secondary cause. The major morbidity is visual loss, which may be severe and permanent. This article reviews the diagnosis, evaluation, and management of patients with pseudotumor cerebri syndrome in adults and children.

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1994
Pseudotumor cerebri is frequently the only clinical clue to the presence of cerebral venous thrombosis, a potentially devastating condition. We report a case of pseudotumor cerebri associated with thrombosed dural venous sinuses caused by propagation of a catheter-related subclavian vein thrombus.
