Overview

Epidemiology reveals rising idiopathic intracranial hypertension incidences in obese women, suggesting venous sinus stenting may improve treatment.

Key Points

  • To summarize the current understanding and management of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH).
  • Review of epidemiology and clinical features of IIH.
  • Assessment of diagnostic evaluation techniques and management strategies.
  • Focus on venous sinus stenting as a treatment option.
  • Incidence of IIH is increasing among obese women.
  • Diagnostic criteria and imaging techniques have improved over time.
  • Acetazolamide and topiramate are first-line drugs for managing IIH.
