‘Chronic intracranial venous hypertension syndrome’: a new classification scheme for IIH

JNIS Editor-In-Chief Felipe C. Albuquerque discusses idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) and a new patient classification paradigm with Kyle Fargen (Neurological Surgery, Wake Forest University, Winston-Salem, USA) and Michael Levitt (Neurological Surgery, University of Washington, Seattle, USA). Both authors recently wrote about the intersection between IIH and venous sinus stenosis, an increasingly hot topic within the neurointerventional community. In the podcast, the participants discuss this novel classification, venous sinus stenting, and issues pertaining to this diverse patient population.
