Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension

Archives of Neurology, 2002
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is an increasingly recognized syndrome. Postural headache with typical findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the key to diagnosis. Delay in diagnosing this condition may subject patients to unnecessary procedures and prolong morbidity.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension

Australasian Radiology, 1999
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is a rare benign and usually self-limited condition of unknown aetiology. Four cases are presented that illustrate how the MRI features may support a diagnosis suggested on clinical grounds. The MRI findings include diffuse symmetric smooth dural thickening and enhancement, not only at the cranial level, but also ...

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2007
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is caused by leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), with resultant CSF hypovolemia and intracranial hypotension. Although in some patients SIH may be preceded by minor trauma, it often occurs in the absence of any identifiable initiating event. Orthostatic headache is the primary clinical manifestation, usually

MRI and Surgical Findings Refine Concepts of Type 2 Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks in Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension.

Radiology
Background Type 2 lateral spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage occurs in approximately 20% of cases of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH); however, the underlying pathologic mechanism remains ambiguous. Purpose To characterize MRI features of
