Objective: To report a rare case of intracranial hypertension with papilledema and visual field loss in a 14-year-old boy receiving recombinant human growth hormone. Method: Case report. Results: Lumbar puncture revealed an elevated cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure of 47cmH2O. The hormone was descontinued and acetazolamide 500mg four times dailyinitiated. However, lumbar pressure was 51cmH2O one week later. Cerebral angiography revealed transverse sinus stenosis. The patient was treated with venous sinus stent implant,with a gradual improvement of the symptoms. Conclusion: Transverse sinus angioplasty may improve the clinical symptoms and signs of intracranial hypertension in selected patients. Additional research is needed to confirm these findings.
