Abstract:
Pseudotumor cerebri, an uncommon complication following BMT, has been generally associated with cyclosporin A neurotoxicity. However, it has not previously been reported as a clinical presentation of sinusitis in spite of its high incidence after BMT. We report a case of pseudotumor cerebri secondary to sinusitis in a child with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and who underwent unrelated bone marrow transplantation.
