“…Methanol, ethylene-glycol, and toluene are also associated with papillitis and optic nerve injury. 57,58 On fundoscopic exam, sarcoidosis optic neuropathy may manifest with optic disc pallor which is the most common sign, followed by optic disc edema, periphlebitis, and optic disc granulomas. 59 In drug induced papillitis, patients present with normal appearing optic disc in early stages, disc edema and hyperemia may occur in some cases, followed by papillomacular bundle and optic atrophy visible as a temporal pallor of the optic disc.…”

Increased intracranial pressure is the most common cause of papilledema. Multiple etiologies such as cerebral edema, hydrocephalus, space occupying lesions, infection, and idiopathic intracranial hypertension among others should be considered. Imaging plays a critical role in the detection of pathologies that can cause papilledema. MRI with contrast and CE-MRV, in particular, are key for the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. This review will focus in common and infrequent causes of papilledema, the role of imaging in patients with papilledema as well as its potential mimickers.
