Скачать или смотреть Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus & Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension | PG Residents | Doctutorials

As a PG resident, you must recall crisp, high-yield notes for exams, viva, and ward rounds. Two such essential topics are Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH) and Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH)—both important because they are reversible neurological conditions with high clinical relevance.

Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (NPH)
Definition: Rare but reversible dementia.
Urinary incontinence, cognitive decline, and gait disturbance (magnetic gait) comprise the triad.
Pathophysiology: Ventricular enlargement with reduced brain compliance & intermittent ICP spikes.
Diagnosis: MRI/CT (ventriculomegaly), CSF tap test (symptom relief).
Treatment: Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt.

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH)
Definition: Increased intracranial pressure without hydrocephalus or mass lesions.
Epidemiology: Young, obese women (reproductive age).
Symptoms: Headache, papilledema, transient visual loss, diplopia (CN VI palsy).
Diagnosis: MRI – normal; LP – ↑ opening pressure, CSF normal.
Complication: Permanent vision loss if untreated.
Management: Weight reduction, acetazolamide, repeated LP; surgery (CSF shunt/optic nerve sheath fenestration) if refractory.
