Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (Pseudotumor Cerebri)

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (Pseudotumor Cerebri): Descriptive Epidemiology, Clinical Features, and Visual Outcome in Parma, Italy, 1990 to 1999

“…The patients in our study ranged in age from 16 to 53 years, with a mean age of 35 years. This age distribution is similar to that in other epidemiologic reports (25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30). The female preponderance and high f requency of obesity found in many previous studies w e re confirmed in our series, with a female to male ratio of 4:1.…”

Clinical characterization of idiopathic intracranial hypertension at the Detroit Medical Center

“…These findings are consistent with the population-based studies in North-Eastern Libya (30%) [10], Saudi Arabia (22%) [11], Iowa (25.9%) [9], Rochester, MN (16.7%) [3], Northern Ireland (34%) [7] and Western Turkey (27%) [17]. While a recent review suggests that vision loss is less frequently reported and less profound in population-based studies [2], we report vision changes both with and without headaches as an important presenting clinical feature for the Detroit area IIH patient.…”

Pediatric Pseudotumor Cerebri: Descriptive Epidemiology

“…Our numerator for our incidence estimates is relatively high (N = 29) and compares favorably with other population based studies done within North America (Radhakrishnan et al: N = 9, 6 Durcan et al: Iowa: N = 27; Louisiana: N = 48. 7 )…”
