Stenting as a treatment for exercise-induced intracranial hypertension from bilateral jugular vein obstruction

Secondary pseudotumor cerebri syndrome (SPCS) is defined as intracranial hypertension caused by factors other than an underlying infectious, malignant, or macroscopic structural brain lesion.1 We report a case of exercise-induced SPCS due to decompensation of borderline venous return following bilateral jugular vein (JV) obstruction treated with jugular stenting based on pathophysiological reasoning.
