Pseudotumor cerebri happens when intracranial pressure, the pressure inside your brain, increases for no apparent reason. The symptoms of pseudotumor cerebri resemble those of a brain tumor, but no tumor exists. Pseudotumor cerebri most frequently occurs in overweight women of childbearing age. The symptoms of this disorder may also occur in children and adults. When doctors can’t find a cause for this pressure, it might even be referred to as idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
