Hipertensão intracraniana idiopática de apresentação atípica com papiledema unilateral

Abstract

We describe a 56-year-old female patient that presented with headache, unilateral optic disc edema and nasal visual field constriction. Laboratory and imaging investigation, clinical findings and response to treatment lead to the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hyperthension. We emphasize that unilateral papiledema can be an unusual clinical presentation of the syndrome and discuss its differential diagnosis and treatment.
