Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension
Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension is a condition of raised pressure within the skull without an identifiable cause such as a tumour. It predominantly affects overweight women of reproductive age and causes severe headaches, pulsatile tinnitus, and visual disturbances that can progress to permanent vision loss. Its prevalence is rising in parallel with obesity rates.
