OBJECTIVE: To describe the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and management of a large cohort of patients with concomitant malignant arterial hypertension and intracranial hypertension.
METHODS: Design: Retrospective case series.
SUBJECTS: Patients aged ≥ 18 years with bilateral optic disc oedema (ODE), malignant arterial hypertension and intracranial hypertension at five academic institutions. Patient demographics, clinical characteristics, diagnostic studies, and management were collected.
RESULTS: Nineteen patients (58% female, 63% Black) were included. Median age was 35 years; body mass index (BMI) was 30 kg/m2. Fourteen (74%) patients had pre-existing hypertension. The most common presenting symptom was blurred vision (89%). Median blood pressure (BP) was 220 mmHg systolic (IQR 199-231.5 mmHg) and 130 mmHg diastolic (IQR 116-136 mmHg) mmHg), and median lumbar puncture opening pressure was 36.5 cmH2O. All patients received treatment for arterial hypertension. Seventeen (89%) patients received medical treatment for raised intracranial pressure, while six (30%) patients underwent a surgical intervention. There was significant improvement in ODE, peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer thickness, and visual field in the worst eye (p < 0.05). Considering the worst eye, 9 (47%) presented with acuity ≥ 20/25, while 5 (26%) presented with ≤ 20/200. Overall, 7 patients maintained ≥ 20/25 acuity or better, 6 demonstrated improvement, and 5 demonstrated worsening.
CONCLUSIONS: Papilloedema and malignant arterial hypertension can occur simultaneously with potentially greater risk for severe visual loss. Clinicians should consider a workup for papilloedema among patients with significantly elevated blood pressure and bilateral optic disc oedema.
