Pseudotumor cerebri ( idiopathic intracranial hypertension) is a syndrome of Intracranial hypertension with normal brain parenchyma, normal neurologic exam, normal CSF composition and elevated lumbar puncture opening pressure. The common phenotype observed is young, obese and female [1] . We present a pediatric case of an atypical phenotype, a young pre-pubertal thin male, with refractory pseudotumor despite medical management. |
