Description |
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) may result in severe vision loss and require surgical intervention such as CSF diversion procedures. CSF shunts are associated with high complication rates and may necessitate revision or even removal. We describe the clinical course of two patients with IIH who had no recurrence of disease after removal of their VP shunt. |
