Article Synopsis
- - Hypertrophic pachymeningitis is a condition characterized by thickening of the dura mater, commonly causing chronic headaches and various neurological issues, especially in males.
- - A case study of a 61-year-old male revealed symptoms starting with frontotemporal headaches and leading to vision problems and ptosis, ultimately diagnosed through MRI and confirmed via biopsy after ruling out other causes of meningitis.
- - The condition is often underdiagnosed; hence, it's crucial to consider it in patients with chronic meningitis symptoms when other causes have been excluded, and treatment with high-dose steroids can lead to symptom improvement.
