Multiple Spontaneous CSF Leaks in a Patient With Turner Syndrome: A Case Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Patients with Turner syndrome often have ear abnormalities which predispose them to chronic otitis media. They are also predisposed to develop intracranial hypertension. Both of these conditions can contribute to the development of skull base defects, which should be considered in patients with Turner syndrome presenting with them.
