title: [Benign intracranial hypertension caused by sulfenazone].
abstract: Case report of a iatrogenic benign intracranial hypertension in a 7 months old infant. Unlike in the child and the adult, this syndrome has a peculiar non specific clinical pattern in the infant. Having ruled out other specific acute diseases of the central nervous system, it seems reasonable not to start any treatment since the outcome of this condition is always benign.
