This disorder involves a significant elevation of intracranial pressure. While the exact cause is uncertain, it frequently emerges in young women who are obese and experience menstrual irregularities. In rare cases, certain drugs, including corticosteroids, can trigger it. Common symptoms encompass headaches, vomiting, and visual disruptions. Although the condition itself is not fatal, it has the potential to harm the optic nerves, potentially leading to permanent loss of vision. Treatment involves the use of diuretic medications, and in some instances, excessive cerebrospinal fluid might be redirected through a surgically implanted shunt (artificial passage).
