Key Points

To investigate the prevalence and radiological manifestations of internal jugular venous stenosis in patients with pulsatile tinnitus.
Case-control design comparing patients with pulsatile tinnitus to a control group
Radiological assessments included imaging of internal jugular veins
Clinical evaluations incorporated diagnostic criteria for idiopathic intracranial hypertension
Found an increased prevalence of internal jugular venous stenosis in patients with pulsatile tinnitus
Identified significant radiological manifestations associated with idiopathic intracranial hypertension

Implication

Case-control study shows link between internal jugular venous stenosis and pulsatile tinnitus, suggesting potential diagnostic avenues.

Abstract

IIH = idiopathic intracranial hypertension; IJVS = internal jugular venous stenosis; LP = lumbar puncture; PT = pulsatile tinnitus; SSWA = sigmoid sinus wall abnormalities; TSS = transverse sinus stenosis.
