The Pressure of Headache at the United Kingdom CSF Disorders Day 2023.

ABSTRACT

Headache in intracranial disorders drives significant disability in our patients. Management principles for secondary headaches require a multidisciplinary approach with expertise from the neurological, neuro-ophthalmological, neuroradiological, and neurosurgical specialities. The Pressure of Headache was the theme of the annual United Kingdom CSF Disorders Day and saw speakers and panellists from Australia, Europe, and the United States. Among the topics presented were the newest concepts underpinning idiopathic intracranial hypertension management and spontaneous intracranial hypotension. Advances in our knowledge of cerebrospinal fluid secretion and the visual snow syndrome debate were particular highlights. This review provides a summary of the research on headache disorders that overlap the neuro-ophthalmological axis of care for patients.
