Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), previously known as pseudotumor cerebri and benign intracranial hypertension, is a condition characterized by increased intracranial pressure (pressure around the brain) without a detectable cause. [2] The main symptoms are headache, vision problems, ringing in the ears, and shoulder pain.
For 50% of people, post-concussion symptoms go away within a few days to several weeks after the original injury occurs. [59] In others, symptoms may remain for three to six months, [ 25 ] but evidence indicates that many cases are completely resolved within six months. [ 18 ]
Cerebral edema is excess accumulation of fluid in the intracellular or extracellular spaces of the brain. [1] This typically causes impaired nerve function, increased pressure within the skull, and can eventually lead to direct compression of brain tissue and blood vessels. [1]
Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumour (DNT, DNET) is a type of brain tumor.Most commonly found in the temporal lobe, DNTs have been classified as benign tumours. [1] These are glioneuronal tumours comprising both glial and neuron cells and often have ties to focal cortical dysplasia.
The consensus in the scientific community today is that "pseudotumor cerebri" (increased intracranial pressure of unknown cause) should be called idiopathic intracranial hypertension, or IIH. Intracranial hypertension of a known cause, such as stroke or trauma, should be called secondary IH, or SIH.

At his graduation from a program in Michigan that lasted 45 days called A Forever Recovery, Quenton told her he was worried about leaving. “I don’t know, Mom. I’m safe here,” Ann recalled him saying. “I said, ‘Quenton, you don’t have to go home.’ He said, ‘No, Mom, it’s time to start my life.
