Association of Amount of Weight Lost After Bariatric Surgery with Intracranial Pressure in Women with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension
Neurol 99:e1090-e1099, Mollan, S.P.,et al, 2022
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
The greater the weight loss, the greater the reduction in ICP was documented. Twenty four percentage of weight loss was associated with disease remission. Such magnitude of weight loss was unlikely to be achieved without bariatric surgery, and hence, consideration of referral to a bariatric surgery program early for those with active idiopathic intracranial hypertension may be appropriate.
