Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leaks

Current Opinion in Otolaryngology & Head & Neck Surgery, 2009
Cerebrospinal fluid leaks that occur spontaneously are challenging to manage clinically owing to frequent recurrences following attempted surgical closure. Understanding of the underlying pathophysiology has increased in recent years as we now recognize that the vast majority of these patients demonstrate clinical symptoms and radiographic signs of ...

Nasal Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks

The Journal of Otolaryngology, 2002
Otolaryngologists are increasingly being called on to assist with the evaluation and management of skull base defects that result in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and meningoencephaloceles. A thorough understanding of the underlying pathophysiology and a critical analysis of management principles and treatment options are essential to achieve the ...

Traumatic Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2011
This article discusses the epidemiology, diagnosis, and management of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. An overview of traumatic CSF leaks is presented, and both conservative and operative therapies are reviewed. Management decisions are discussed based on the current literature.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak

New England Journal of Medicine, 2009
A 50-year-old woman presented with a 6-month history of unilateral rhinorrhea. She reported no headaches, weight change, galactorrhea, or visual disturbance. When she bent forward, drops of clear fluid fell from her right nostril.

Cerebrospinal fluid leaks

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 2007
Cerebrospinal fluid leaks (CSF) from the defects in the anterior skull base represent a difficult diagnostic and therapeutic problem since these defects are usually silent and become detected only when complications, such as CSF-leak or meningitis, occur.

Posttraum atic Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks

Archives of Surgery, 1967
ALTHOUGH the initial traumatic damage to the skull and its contents may be slight, leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through the nose, ear, or a compound fracture of the cranial vault may increase greatly the morbidity and possibility of death. The reported incidence of leakage of CSF in a series of patients with acute head injury depends upon an ...

Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1988
At the Triological Society meeting in Palm Beach, Fla, Mark Persky, MD, and coauthors presented the New York University experience with cerebrospinal fluid leaks. Persky pointed out that the incidence of cerebrospinal fluid leaks is increasing due to more aggressive surgery at the skull base, as well as the escalating occurrence of trauma.

Imaging of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks*

Clinical Neuroradiology, 2009
The present article provides an overview of epidemiology, clinical signs and symptoms, imaging techniques and specific imaging findings in cerebrospinal fluid leaks. Imaging protocols are supplemented with practical hints for invasive techniques. Emphasis is on the full scope of imaging findings in traumatic and nontraumatic cranial and spinal leaks.

Imaging of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2016
A cerebrospinal fluid leak from the cranial cavity requires presence of a fistulous communication between the subarachnoid and extracranial space through the skull base. Imaging plays a crucial role in identifying and characterizing the skull base defect and evaluating coexisting pathologies that may alter surgical approach.
