title: Benign intracranial hypertension, monoclonal gammopathy, and superior sagittal sinus thrombosis.
abstract: We report a case of benign intracranial hypertension associated with monoclonal gammopathy. The course was complicated by superior sagittal sinus thrombosis which we believe to be related to acetazolamide therapy. Response to volume expansion with colloid and crystalloid solutions was dramatic.
