dc.description.abstract | A previously healthy 8-year-old girl patient was referred with the complaints of severe headache associated with nausea and vomiting. Three weeks prior to her admission, she had measles manifested with fever and typical skin eruptions. Fundoscopic examination revealed bilateral swollen optic discs with tortuous blood vessels. Other physical examinations were unremarkable, except for photophobia. Lumbar puncture demonstrated a cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure of 30 cm H2O, no cells, normal levels of glucose and protein. Serum measles immunoglobulin M level was elevated (183 AU). Our further investigations revealed that the patient had pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) following measles infection. | en_US |
