Archives of Neurology, 1988
We describe 29 men with pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) and compare them with aged-matched women with PTC and male control subjects. Pseudotumor cerebri occurs less frequently in men but in a similar age distribution. Although signs and symptoms of PTC are similar in men and women, men may require surgical treatment for impending visual loss.

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

Pseudotumor cerebri in galactosemia
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1970Three infants with signs of increased intracranial pressure in association with galactosemia are reported. The presence of a bulging fontanelle initially suggested other diagnostic possibilities, and led to the loss of valuable time before the correct diagnosis was made.

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.

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 ...

Pseudotumor Cerebri and Pregnancy
American Journal of Perinatology, 1989We reviewed 11 pregnancies complicated by pseudotumor cerebri over a 6-year period for an incidence of approximately 1 in 870 births. No pregnancy was adversely affected, but symptoms of pseudotumor increased in 9 of 11 pregnancies. All patients were managed medically, 9 of 11 with analgesics and diuretics. Two cases required steroid therapy.

Endocrinology of Pseudotumor Cerebri
Neurologic Clinics, 1986This article will review the endocrine function of obese young women with pseudotumor cerebri and primary empty sella syndrome. The literature can be difficult to interpret. Much of it predates the era of CT scanning. Often, cases of primary and secondary empty sella syndrome are comingled. The author reviews specific endocrinologic disorders that have

Pseudotumor Cerebri and Pregnancy
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1984Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) is most commonly seen in obese women of reproductive age. We studied 109 women with PTC between ages 16 and 44 years. In 11, PTC started during pregnancy. Thirteen women with previous diagnosis of PTC, including two of the aforementioned 11, had an additional 17 documented pregnancies.
