“…17 In addition, Wardly has hypothesized a possible effect of obesity leading to a propensity for jugular venous collapsibility or narrowing, contributing to increased ICP via increased resistance in the jugular veins. 18 Despite these hypotheses, however, there is still no consensus on an association between these two entities. For example, in a crucial polysomnography study conducted on 24 newly diagnosed IIH patients, OSAS was not found to be an independent factor in the severity and prevalence of IIH.…”

“…The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) score was calculated as 17. As a result of interdepartmental consultations and recent literature data pointing to an association between OSAS and IIH in terms of a causal relationship, 18 surgery was predicted to improve IIH symptoms as well as the OSAS symptoms, and shunt revision surgery was not considered in the acute period.…”

“…Daytime sleepiness, impaired concentration, depression, memory loss, tiredness and early morning headaches can be observed in SAS patients [3][4][5][6]. Besides, untreated and undiagnosed sleep apnea can relate to heart disease like hypertension, myocardial infarction and stroke [7][8][9].Sleep disorders have become important factors that adversely affect individuals' quality of life and society as a whole [10]. Therefore, treating the sleep-apnea is an important subject that may lead to certain diagnoses and better lifespan according to treatment.…”

“…When the disc edema is caused by an increase in ICP and not by any other mechanism, it is termed pseudotumor cerebri, or idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). Patients with IIH are often obese, as are patients with OSA.During sleep, patients with OSA have been shown to have increases in their ICP that correspond to their episodes of apnea 23. For some patients, these increases can cause papilledema 21.…”
