Abstrakt: | Typical symptoms of spontaneous intracranial hypotension syndrome are severe headache, weakness, dizziness and inability to stay upright for a long time. Most often, this syndrome occurs due to CSF fistula in spinal space. Pathophysiology and diagnosis of this disease are poorly known for neurologists and neurosurgeons that can complicate timely surgical care. In case of correct diagnosis, we can identify the exact location of CSF fistula in 90% of cases. Treatment eliminates symptoms of intracranial hypotension and provides functional recovery. The purpose of this article is to describe the diagnostic algorithm and successful microsurgical treatment of a patient with spinal dural CSF fistula Th3-Th4 through posterolateral transdural approach. |
