Reversible visual loss in pseudotumor cerebri.

H Gutgold-Glen, J C Kattah, R M Chavis.   

Abstract

A patient with chronic pseudotumor cerebri experienced precipitous visual loss as a result of a central retinal vein occlusion associated with an intracranial pressure elevation of 520 mm of CSF and a fall of mean systemic arterial pressure. Optic nerve sheath decompression was associated with substantial improvement of vision.
