A Possible Role for Temporary Lumbar Drainage in the Management of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension.

Peter Gates1, Peter McNeill2.   

Abstract

This paper reports 14 patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) who experienced immediate and sustained resolution of their IIH; 13 in the setting of a low-pressure headache and 1 who underwent lumbar drainage for 4 days draining the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) at a rate of 5-15 mL/h. These observations, if confirmed, suggest that draining CSF using a temporary lumbar drain draining CSF at a rate greater than it is produced may potentially have a pivotal role in the management of IIH.
