2 Outline

3 Modified Dandy Criteria 1 1. Symptoms and signs only reflect those of generalized intracranial hypertension or papilledema. 2. Elevated ICP must be documented, measured in the lateral decubitus posinon. 3. Normal CSF composinon. 4. No evidence of hydrocephalus, mass, structural or vascular lesion on structural neuroimaging for typical panents, and magnenc resonance imaging (MRI) and magnenc resonance venography for all others. 5. No other cause of intracranial hypertension idennfied. 1. Neurology 2002;59:1492-5

4 Modified Dandy Criteria 1 1. Symptoms and signs Headache most common. Enlarged Blind Spot or disc base field loss, TVO, Diplopia (VI palsy) Other rare findings (VII palsy) 2. Elevated ICP Normal, <25 Boarderline, 25 Elevated 2. Consider repeat if high index 3. Normal CSF composinon Cells, Protein, Glucose. Others depending on context 4. No evidence of lesion on structural neuroimaging 1. Look at the jugular. 2. Consider spinal imaging in Men or atypical cases 5. No other cause of intracranial hypertension idennfied 1. But when to stop? I don t use the Criteria suggested in Neurology 2013;81: for Pseudotumor cerebri Neurology 2002;59:1492-5
