Abstract

ObjectivesThis systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the role of B-mode transorbital ultrasonography (TOS) for the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) in adults.MethodsMEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) (1966-May 2022) were searched to identify studies reporting ultrasonographic data about the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) and optic disc elevation (ODE) in adults with IIH compared to subjects without IIH. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by the Newcastle-Ottawa Quality.ResultsFifteen studies were included (total of 439 patients). The values of ODE ranged from 0.6 to 1.3 mm in patients with IIH. The values of ONSD ranged from 4.7 to 6.8 mm in IIH patients and from 3.9 to 5.7 mm in controls. In IIH patients, the ONSD was significantly higher compared to controls (standardized mean difference: 2.5 mm, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.6-3.4 mm). Nine studies provided data about the presence of papilledema and the pooled prevalence was 95% (95% CI, 92-97%).ConclusionsIn adults, the thickness of ONSD and the entity of ODE were significantly associated with IIH. B-mode TOS enables to noninvasively detect increased ICP and should be performed, potentially routinely, in any patient with suspected IIH.
