[[1903]]-[[1905]]

[[Heinrich Quincke]] in [[1897]] reported the first cases of IIH shortly after he introduced the [[lumbar puncture]] into medicine. It was named [[pseudotumor cerebri]] in [[1904]] but was not well delineated clinically until the 1940's when [[cerebral angiography]] was added to [[pneumoencephalography]] to identify cases of cerebral mass lesions. Foley coined the term [[benign intracranial hypertension]] in [[1955]] but reports from the 1980's demonstrated a high incidence of [[visual loss]]
((Corbett JJ, Savino PJ, Thompson HS, et al. Visual loss in pseudotumor cerebri. Follow-up of 57 patients from five to 41 years and a profile of 14 patients with permanent severe visual loss. Arch Neurol. 1982;39:461–474.))
((Wall M, Hart WM, Jr., Burde RM. Visual field defects in idiopathic intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) Am J Ophthalmol. 1983;96:654–669.)) and the term “benign” is no longer appropriate.

The German ophthalmologist [[Eugen von Hippel]] first described [[angioma]]s in the [[eye]] in [[1904]].

[[Arvid Lindau]] described [[cerebellar angioma]]s and [[spine]] in [[1927]].

The term von Hippel-Lindau disease was first used in [[1936]], however its use became common only in the 1970s.

[[Anton von Eiselsberg]] was the first to resect a cerebral tumor at the First Surgical Clinic at the General Hospital in Vienna in [[1904]]. He successfully removed a cerebral glioma.
----
Although the [[translabyrinthine approach]] was described by Panse in [[1904]] and first used to resect a [[cerebellopontine angle tumor]] by Quix in [[1912]], it was not until House published 47 resections with no mortalities in [[1964]] that the approach was truly popularized
