Abstract
- This article explores the differences in neuroimaging findings between patients with medically refractory idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak (IIHwL) and patients with IIH without spontaneous CSF leak (IIHwoL). The study conducted a retrospective review of medical records and compared demographic information, clinical presentations, venous sinus manometry data, lumbar puncture opening pressure, and neuroimaging findings between the two patient groups. The results showed that patients with IIHwL had different neuroimaging findings compared to those with IIHwoL, highlighting the importance of recognizing these differences for the timely identification and management of CSF leak patients with IIH.
