Bariatric surgery and its impact on pseudotumor cerebri: A case report.
Purpose: Pseudotumor cerebri is a debilitating condition that causes severe headaches and progressive visual field loss. In this report, we present a patient with Class III obesity, with pseudotumor cerebri who failed medical management and attempted weight loss via diet and exercise.
Observations: After undergoing bariatric surgery, the patient had significant weight loss and improvement of visual field defects.
Conclusion and importance: These results suggest that bariatric surgery may be an effective option for patients with rapidly progressing visual loss due to pseudotumor cerebri.
