Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034


The 7 major idiopathic intracranial hypertension markets are expected to exhibit a CAGR of 6.53% during 2024-2034.

The idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) market has been comprehensively analyzed in IMARC’s new report titled “Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension Market: Epidemiology, Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity, and Forecast 2024-2034”. Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) refers to a neurological disorder of unknown etiology characterized by chronically elevated intracranial pressure (ICP). This condition is caused by an abnormal increase in the pressure of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Idiopathic intracranial hypertension is primarily diagnosed in overweight or obese women of childbearing age, but it can also occur in men, children, and people who are not overweight. The most common symptoms of IIH are headache, which is typically a severe and constant pain that is often worse in the morning and at night, and vision problems, including double vision, blurring, and blind spots. Other symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, ringing in the ears, and problems with balance. In some cases, IIH can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated promptly. Diagnosis of IIH is made through a combination of medical history, physical examination, and imaging studies. Several diagnostic tests are used to rule out a tumor and find the cause of symptoms, including a brain CT scan or MRI, an eye exam to check for swelling near the optic nerve, and a spinal tap (lumbar puncture) to evaluate CSF. Treatment for IIH typically involves a combination of medical and surgical options.

The increasing prevalence of obesity, which is a major risk factor for IIH, is primarily driving the global idiopathic intracranial hypertension market. In addition to this, the escalating utilization of lumbar puncture to measure the opening pressure, as well as to obtain CSF which examines abnormal cells, infections, antibody levels, glucose levels, and protein levels for diagnosing IIH is further augmenting the market growth. Moreover, the widespread adoption of several medications, such as acetazolamide, topiramate, furosemide, etc., to reduce cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) production and/or increase CSF absorption is creating a positive outlook for the market. Apart from this, the rising popularity of surgical therapies among patients who have failed medications or have significant loss of peripheral or central vision is also bolstering the market growth. For instance, optic nerve sheath fenestration (ONSF), which involves making minor cuts in the sheath surrounding the optic nerve to decrease pressure on the nerve, is often employed for treating IIH. Furthermore, the growing importance of weight loss as an effective means of reducing papilledema and, consequently, the risk of progressive blindness, is also acting as a significant growth-inducing factor. Patients are encouraged to enroll in a rigorous weight loss program, ideally using a multidisciplinary approach that includes diet and exercise along with psychological and lifestyle counseling. Besides this, several key players are making extensive investments in introducing novel medications to reduce disease symptoms, prevent vision loss, and improve quality of life. This, in turn, is expected to drive the global idiopathic intracranial hypertension market during the forecast period.
