متن کاملIs a negative cranial CT-scan adequate to support a diagnosis of pseudotumor cerebri
In a patient with features indicating the presence of pseudotumor cerebri, a negative cranial CT-scan is not adequate to rule out less benign pathology and an MRI of brain should be performed. In this study, a 10-year old boy with daily headaches for one month and diplopia for one week was found to have a partial abducens palsy and bilateral papilledema; otherwise, his examination was normal. A...

متن کاملPSEUDO TUMOR CEREBRI AS THE MAJOR MANIFESTATION OF SYSTEMIC LUPUS ER Y THEMATOSUS IN A CASE OF FEVER OF UNDE TERMINED ORIGIN
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is less likely to present as fever of undetermined origin today. This is due to the widespread use of immunologic tests which permit early diagnosis. It is not surprising therefore that only atypical cases of SLE present as FUa. Although uncommon, pseudotumor cerebri has been recognized as either a presenting manifestation or a complication of SLE. This c...
متن کاملRecurrent pseudotumor cerebri in systemic lupus erythematosus: a case report.
Pseudotumor cerebri is an uncommon manifestation of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and is characterized by an elevated intracranial pressure, papilledema with occasional abducens nerve paresis, absence of a space-occupying lesion or ventricular enlargement, and normal cerebrospinal fluid chemical and hematological constituents. Pseudotumor cerebri has been reported in a fe...
