Papilloedema secondary to otitic hydrocephalus

Otitic Hydrocephalus: A Report of 2 Cases

“…8,12 Papilledema and ipsilateral abducens nerve palsy are usually evident. 17 Optic atrophy can eventually develop. 8 Otitic hydrocephalus is commonly associated with lateral sinus thrombosis, but not all patients with lateral sinus thrombosis develop otitic hydrocephalus.…”

Ophthalmological Perspective on Pediatric Ear, Nose, and Throat Infections

“…Otitis media may also lead to various intracranial complications, such as brain abscesses, subdural empyema, cavernous sinus thrombosis, meningitis, lateral sinus thrombosis, and otitic hydrocephalus. In intracranial complications, papilledema, affected CN, including abducens nerve palsy in particular, visual field defects, and diplopia can be detected due to increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure [105,106].…”
