In conclusion, IIH may be related to olfactory impairment. Cranial MRI images showed a decrease in peripheral (OB volume) and central (insular gyrus and corpus amygdala area and thalamus volume) smell regions. To prevent olfactory impairment in IIH patients, treatment should be done in IIH patients to decrease intracranial pressure. It is very important to prevent the circulation of CSF with increased pressure between the sheets of the olfactory nerve in IIH patients.
