Diagnostic criteria for spontaneous spinal CSF leaks and intracranial hypotension.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Comprehensive diagnostic criteria encompassing the varied clinical and radiographic manifestations of spontaneous intracranial hypotension are not available. Therefore, we propose a new set of diagnostic criteria. MATERIALS AND METHODS The diagnostic criteria are based on results of brain and spine imaging, clinical manifestations, results of lumbar puncture, and respon...

متن کاملSpontaneous intracranial hypotension.
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is an increasingly recognised syndrome. Postural headache with typical findings on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are the key to diagnosis. Orthostatic headache, low cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure, and diffuse meningeal enhancement on post-contrast T1-weighted MRI brain studies are the major features of this increasingly recognised syndrome. He...
متن کاملSpontaneous intracranial hypotension.
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 involving the cervical spinal dura, subdural ...
متن کاملPseudoarachnoiditis in Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension
The most common causes of intracranial hypotension include persistent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage from lumbar puncture, spontaneous CSF leakage, or excessive CSF drainage. Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is defined as a syndrome of reduced CSF pressure that occurs in the absence of dural puncture, surgery, or trauma. The pathogenesis is generally thought to be an occult leak of...
