Spontaneous Low Csf Volume Headache with Abducens Nerve Palsy
The syndrome of spontaneous low CSF volume headache is caused by spontaneous or traumatic leaks of the CSF from the subarachnoid space. The CSF hypovolaemia causes sagging of the brain and traction of cranial nerves leading sometimes to overt cranial nerve palsies. We report three cases of this syndrome, in which abducens nerve palsy developed after postural headache in two patients, and neck a...

متن کاملThe efficacy of epidural blood patch in spontaneous CSF leaks.

Of 15 patients who received a second EBP, five became asymptomatic (33%). Of eight patients who received three or more EBP (mean 4), four patients (50%) responded well.
متن کاملDiagnostic 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 کاملA Unified Management for Spontaneous CSF Leak
Background: Spontaneous CSF leak represents less frequent cause of CSF leak, but cases are more difficult to control, with the highest failure rate and recurrence despite adequate repair. The problems in these cases might be related to an underlying undiagnosed associated intracranial hypertension. Recognition and long-term treatment of elevated ICP is therefore critical to the successful manag...
