Abstract:
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is defined by the presence of headache with or without associated visual impairment, elevated cerebrospinal fluid pressure, and exclusion of a secondary etiology. The increased risk of severe visual impairment prompts rapid recognition and initial management by general practitioners, even though the incidence of this condition is low. Based on a case report, the aim of this review is to describe the typical clinical presentation of IIH, to discuss the underlying pathophysiology as well as work-up and management.
