CEREBROSPINAL fluid leakBRAIN injuriesDEMENTIAALZHEIMER'S diseaseFRONTOTEMPORAL dementiaWe read with interest the fascinating research conducted by Schievink and colleagues on the link between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak and symptoms of behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), ...
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak can occur from the skin, or, more often in the form of rhinorrhea. Meticulous closure is very important for preventing such leaks. If leakage does occur, spinal drainage is carried out for 72 hours. If this continues, the wound is re-explored. If meningitis...
Cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, surrounds the brain and spinal cord, providing protection, buoyancy and hormone transportation. When a tear occurs in the dura mater, a membrane that covers the brain and spinal cord, there is a leak of the cerebrospinal fluid, causing a drop in pressure. This te...
The confirmation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks in the setting of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) by imaging involves a growing toolset of multimodal advanced spinal and skull base imaging techniques, for which exists a unique set of challenges for each CSF leak type. Furthermore, th...
symptoms are low-pressure (orthostatic) headaches (92%), nausea (54%), and neck pain (43%).[8]Ringing in the ear and loss of smell or taste is also possible clinical findings. The most common cause of leaking cerebrospinal fluid is a structural compromise secondary to craniofacial trauma,...
Cerebrospinal (CSF) rhinorrhea is a rare condition in which spinal fluid leaks from a tear in the meninges into the sinuses and nasal passages. CSF rhinorrhea is different from a runny nose caused by a cold or allergies. The fluid is always thin and clear, and symptoms don't improve with...

MRI showed diffuse, thin meningeal enhancement; bilateral subdural fluid collections; and morphological abnormalities secondary to "sagging" of the brain. Radionuclide cisternography revealed direct or indirect signs of leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) along the spinal axis, and the symptoms resolved...
A 70-year-old man presented 1 month after decompressive surgery for lumbar canal stenosis with leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the wound site and severe headache. There were no signs of surgical site infection or meningitis. There was no intraoperative or immediate postoperative evidence ...
