OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) in fibromyalgia (FMS) patients by utilizing ultrasound to measure the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), a marker of elevated intracranial pressure and also to investigate the relationship with function, fatigue, quality of life (QOL), central sensitization (CS) and neuropathic pain.
METHODS: The study encompassed 80 female FMS patients and 75 healthy controls. Ultrasound was employed to measure the average ONSD in both groups. Conditions potentially elevating intracranial pressure were ruled out following neurological assessments. Pain (via visual analog scale, VAS), function (revised Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire, r-FIQ), QOL (Short Form-36, SF-36), fatigue (fatigue severity scale, FACIT), CS (Central Sensitization Scale), and neuropathic pain (Douleur Neuropathique-4) were evaluated.
RESULTS: The average ONSD was significantly higher in the patient group than the control group. Patients with ONSD >5.5 mm consistent with IIH were categorized as Group 1 (n = 54, 67.5%), while those with a diameter of 5.5 mm and below-formed Group 2. VAS pain (p = .033) and FIQ-R scores (p = .033) were significantly higher in Group 1 than Group 2. Headache was found more common in Group 1.
CONCLUSION: This study unveils a substantial occurrence (67.5%) of IIH in FMS patients, suggesting shared pathophysiological mechanisms contributing to symptoms like fatigue, headache, and cognitive dysfunction. Additionally, these findings implicate heightened functional impairment, CS, headache, and fatigue in FMS patients with IIH.
