Spontaneous intracranial hypotension

open access: yesCurrent 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

The commonly missed diagnosis of intracranial hypotension

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2016
We report a 28 year old female who presented with a subacute onset of a severe throbbing and stabbing headache after a morning spin class 9 months ago. We confirmed the diagnosis of spontaneous intracranial hypotension cause by a cerebrospinal fluid leak.

Spontaneous intracranial hypotension in adolescence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2007
A 16-year-old boy presented with a 4-week history of sudden onset and progressively worsening occipital headache. Symptoms were exacerbated on sitting and standing, and initially alleviated with recumbency and on extensive neck flexion. There was no medical or familial history. He was a keen line skater, regularly executing back flips on a skating ramp.

Brain Slump Caused by Jugular Venous Stenoses Treated by Stenting: A Hypothesis to Link Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension

open access: yesJournal of Neurological Surgery Reports, 2015
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension, of which brain slump is an extreme expression, is caused by a cerebrospinal fluid leak. The reason the leak develops in the first place, however, is unknown, and some cases can be very difficult to manage.

Risk factors for nonresponsive hydration in patients with spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2021
Background Spinal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is frequently encountered clinically after lumbar puncture or spontaneous events. Although some patients recover without treatment or after intensive hydration, some require an epidural blood patch (EBP)

Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Without CSF Leakage—Concept of a Pathological Cranial to Spinal Fluid Shift

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
Objective: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is typically caused by CSF leakage from a spinal dural tear, a meningeal diverticulum, or a CSF venous fistula.
