Abstract
Benign intracranial hypertension is a condition of obscure aetiology which presents with episodic headaches and nausea. It is a diagnosis based on the exclusion of other intracranial pathology and computed tomography is usually normal. We present a case of gliomatosis cerebri which was initially diagnosed and treated as benign intracranial hypertension.
