Surgical Outcomes Comparison of Spontaneous Middle Cranial Fossa Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks: Systematic Review and Meta‐analysis

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leaks of lateral skull base have little consensus on optimal management. We synthesized and evaluated current literature via systematic and meta‐analysis to compare the success rates and complications of the different surgical techniques for middle cranial fossa (MCF) sCSF leak repair.

Obstruction caused by suprasellar cisterna arachnoid cyst expansion after ventriculoperitoneal shunt in children with hydrocephalus

Pediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
This article focuses on four cases of hydrocephalus after ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt in our center from 2016 to 2021. Imaging follow‐up showed that the secondary suprasellar cisterna arachnoid cyst was enlarged and then formed obstructive hydrocephalus. The clinical symptoms were relieved after a suprasellar cisterna cyst stomy.
