Rebound intracranial hypertension is a complication of epidural blood patching for treatment of intracranial hypotension characterized by increased intracranial pressure, resulting in potentially severe headache, nausea, and vomiting. Because the symptoms of rebound intracranial hypertension may bear some similarity to those of intracranial hypotension and literature reports of rebound intracra...

INTRODUCTION Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is one of the causes of a postural headache in young people. In this study, the diagnosis and treatment results of a case of intracranial hypotension headache due to spinal cerebrospinal fluid leakage were reported. Up to now, there is not absolutely effective treatment for intracranial hypotension headache. CASE DESCRIPTION A 32-year-old woma...

INTRACRANIAL hypotension is an important cause of new daily persistent postural headaches. Among the causes of intracranial hypotension, many cases are due to spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, often associated with an underlying generalized connective tissue disorder. Intracranial hypotension may also be due to dural puncture after epidural catheter positioning. Most cases of intracra...

abstract the current mainstay of treatment in spontaneous intracranial hypotension (sih) is an epidural blood patch (ebp). although magnetic resonance imaging (mri) has a well-established role in the diagnosis of sih, imaging features regarding the treatment efficacy of ebp have rarely been discussed. we therefore sought to investigate and compare the sequential brain mri studies before and aft...
