Several secondary causes are implicated in the etiology of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. Rofecoxib is a selective cyclo-oxygenase (COX)-2 inhibitor, now being increasingly used in place of nonselective nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). We report a case of intracranial hypertension in a 69-year-old man 3 weeks after the commencement of rofecoxib therapy with reversal of clinical findings on drug withdrawal.
特发性颅内高压的病因涉及多种继发因素。罗非昔布是一种选择性环氧化酶(COX)-2抑制剂,现在越来越多地用于替代非选择性非甾体抗炎药(NSAIDs)。我们报告一例69岁男性在开始罗非昔布治疗3周后出现颅内高压的病例,停药后临床症状逆转。
