Sphenoid Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak

2021
Management of sphenoid CSF leaks is complicated in the setting of prior surgery and radiation. Active CSF leak in the presence of recalcitrant sinus infections, cranial base osteomyelitis, and life-threatening bleeding offers additional complexity to the hierarchy of treatment strategies.

Postoperative Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1964
Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid leak has occurred in sufficient magnitude to require secondary surgical closure in five cases (cases 8, 25, 50, 51, and 53). In several other cases there has been minor spinal fluid leak for several days postoperatively but spontaneous resolution has occurred.

Delayed Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak following Septoplasty

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2009
We report on the clinical syndrome of delayed cerebrospinal fluid leak following septoplasty. We describe 2 such cases that we treated, and 1 other case described in the literature. A review of these 3 cases indicates a characteristic clinical and radiologic presentation and a consistent site of cerebrospinal fluid leak.

Spontaneous Spinal Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks

Cephalalgia, 2008
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is an uncommon but not rare cause of new onset daily persistent headaches. A delay in diagnosis is the norm. Women are affected more commonly than men and most are in the fifth or sixth decade of life. The underlying cause is a spontaneous spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. Typically the headache is orthostatic

Endoscopic Management of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks

Facial Plastic Surgery, 2009
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is an uncommon but important medical condition. It can result from trauma, intracranial hypertension, or be idiopathic in origin. If left untreated, significant sequelae can result including infectious meningitis. Beta-2 transferrin is a sensitive and specific protein marker for CSF.
