Descriptor English: Intracranial Hypotension
Descriptor Spanish: Hipotensión Intracraneal
Descriptor hipotensión intracraneal
Entry term(s) hipotensión intracraneal esencial
hipotensión intracraneal espontánea
hipotensión intracraneal secundaria
Scope note: Reducción de la presión del LÍQUIDO CEFALORRAQUÍDEO, caracterizada clínicamente por CEFALEA ORTOSTÁTICA y, ocasionalmente, por parálisis del nervio motor ocular externo (ver ENFERMEDADES DEL NERVIO ABDUCENS), rigidez de nuca, PÉRDIDA AUDITIVA, NÁUSEAS y otros síntomas. Esta afección puede ser espontánea o secundaria a PÉRDIDA DE LÍQUIDO CEFALORRAQUÍDEO, a una PUNCIÓN ESPINAL, PROCEDIMIENTOS NEUROQUIRÚRGICOS, DESHIDRATACIÓN, UREMIA, traumatismo (ver también TRAUMATISMOS CRANEOENCEFÁLICOS) y otros procesos. La hipotensión craneal crónica puede asociarse a hematomas subdurales (ver HEMATOMA SUBDURAL) o higromas.

Scope note: Reduction of CEREBROSPINAL FLUID pressure characterized clinically by ORTHOSTATIC HEADACHE and occasionally by an ABDUCENS NERVE PALSY; HEARING LOSS; NAUSEA; neck stiffness, and other symptoms. This condition may be spontaneous or secondary to CEREBROSPINAL FLUID LEAK; SPINAL PUNCTURE; NEUROSURGICAL PROCEDURES; DEHYDRATION; UREMIA; trauma (see also CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA); and other processes. Chronic hypotension may be associated with subdural hematomas (see HEMATOMA, SUBDURAL) or hygromas. (From Semin Neurol 1996 Mar;16(1):5-10; Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, pp637-8)
