Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common disorder and is associated with brain functional and morphological alterations. The association between OSA and papilledema, however, is not well known. We describe a 53-year-old morbidly obese female who presented with impaired vision due to bilateral papilledema. Polysomnography revealed severe OSA. She was treated with continuous positive airway pressure, and within a few weeks her papilledema and vision improved. This case report is consistent with association of OSA with papilledema but does not prove causality.
阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停(OSA)是一种常见疾病,与大脑功能和形态改变有关。然而,OSA 与视乳头水肿之间的关系尚不清楚。我们描述了一位 53 岁的病态肥胖女性,因双侧视乳头水肿导致视力受损。多导睡眠图显示严重的 OSA。她接受了持续气道正压通气治疗,几周内她的视乳头水肿和视力有所改善。本病例报告与 OSA 与视乳头水肿有关,但不能证明因果关系。
