Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Plus Cerebral Venous Thrombosis: A Case Report Study
This is a case study of a 34-year-old woman who was admitted to hospital with a history of severe orthostatic headache. She was diagnosed as having spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) by undetectable cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure at lumbar puncture, and with evidence of diffuse dural enhancement of the brain detected by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, the contrast-enhance...
متن کاملIntracranial Hypotension with Multiple Complications: An Unusual Case Report
Background. Undiagnosed intracranial hypotension can result in several complications including subdural hematoma (SDH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), dural venous sinuses thrombosis (CVT), cranial nerve palsies, and stupor resulting from sagging of the brain.

متن کاملSpontaneous intracranial hypotension due to thoracic disc herniation. Case report.
Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is frequently idiopathic. The authors report on a patient presenting with symptomatic intracranial hypotension caused by a transdural calcified thoracic disc herniation.

متن کاملTreatment of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypotension With Tea: A Case Report
INTRODUCTION The syndrome of spontaneous intracranial hypotension has been increasingly diagnosed since its discovery through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). It is a rare syndrome that is due to the leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from a tear in the dura and can occur at any age, even among adolescents, but is most frequently seen among females in late middle age. CASE PRESENTATION Her...
متن کاملIntracranial hypotension.
