Optic Disc Edema in Raised Intracranial Pressure

Stenting versus medical treatment for idiopathic intracranial hypertension: a matched-control study

“…This finding is consistent with a previous study which showed that papilledema, the most distinguishing symptom associated with intracranial hypertension, has long been associated with increased ICP 24. Compared with the medical treatment group, patients undergoing stenting had rapid signs of improvement in both their symptoms and for papilledema.…”

Influence of sex and disease etiology on the development of papilledema and optic nerve sheath extension in the setting of intracranial pressure elevation in children

“…Regarding etiology, initial US-ONSD was similar in patients with PTC (6.67 ± 0.79 mm) compared with tumor patients (6.54 ± 0.51 mm), with a greater difference between patients with vs. without papilledema in the tumor cohort. In the tumor and PTC cohorts, ONSD regression/normalization was delayed in line with the known hysteresis of the optic nerve sheath ( Hayreh, 1977 ) after chronic ICP elevation, but showed a clear and significant decrease regardless of etiology. At the end of FU, all patients had normal US-ONSD values.…”

Effects of chronic upper respiratory bypass cannula on the morphology and function of the eye of the sheep

“…The venous congestion observed during the bypass breathing is con cordant with the observation made by Hayreh (1977) when he reported that vascular congestion was secondary to disc edema. This was attributed to the compression of the thin-walled central retinal vein by swollen axons as it passed through the optic nerve head.…”
