Video 7: Surgeries 1

New group of videos with my experience on the types of surgeries available, and my direct experience with them, for the treatment of Pseudotumor Cerebri.

Welcome to the Pseudotumor.life website!

This is a website, an open place for all those diagnosed, or who might be diagnosed, those who believe they might suffer from, and family members/carers of anyone with Pseudotumor Cerebri (PTC); also known as Benign Intracranial Hypertension (BIH) or Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IHH).
