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.

Pseudotumor Cerebri of Childhood
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1977In a study of 38 children with pseudotumor cerebri, the evaluation of the response to treatment received special emphasis. Sixteen children underwent spontaneous remission following diagnosis, or improved following sequential lumbar punctures. Sixteen other children were treated with corticosteroids.

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 pivotal to the disorder. Any comprehensive theory on causation

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.

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 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 ...

Pseudotumor cerebri is a non-tumor related idiopathic or secondary intracranial hypertension. It is typically associated with papilledema and headache and patients are typically female, young and obese. Diagnosis is established by neuroimaging by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), cerebral MR venography (MRV) and lumbar puncture. Papilledema is assessed

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.

Pseudotumor Cerebri in Pregnancy
Obstetrics & Gynecology, 1983Pseudotumor cerebri is an enigmatic neurologic disorder markedly more common in women of childbearing age. Diagnosis, management, and pregnancy outcome of nine women with active disease are described. Pregnancy is not contraindicated in women with pseudotumor cerebri, and termination of pregnancy is seldom required.
