Idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis (IHP) is a rare, chronic nonspecific and granulomatous inflammatory disorder of the dura with unknown etiology. The diagnosis can be established by an open biopsy and exclusion of all other specific granulomatous and infectious diseases. We report a case of Idiopathic hypertrophic pachymeningitis who manifested primarily by headache and visual loss with optic atrophy. The patient was thoroughly investigated and showed no evidence of underlying cause. The diagnosis was established by an open biopsy. JMS 2011;14(1):25-27 |
