Description |
We previously reported that an abnormal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) opening pressure (OP) in children was greater than 28 cm H2O. Since elevated intracranial pressure can cause optic nerve head edema (ONHE), we would expect that most patients with ONHE not due to infectious, inflammatory or ischemic conditions would have an OP greater than 28 cm H2O. |
