Description |
Acute and rapidly progressive visual loss despite appropriate medical treatment is a rare manifestation of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Such patients often develop permanent severe visual loss before aggressive treatment is performed. In this setting, other diseases responsible for elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) such as cerebral venous thrombosis or meningeal processes are usually suspected. |
