D G Walker1.   

Abstract

A case of spontaneous intracranial hypotension presenting with refractory headaches is reported. After exhaustive investigation, the cause of the patient's symptoms was found to be spontaneous leak of CSF at the C1-2 level. The patient underwent surgical repair of the CSF leak and made a good recovery. This case represents a typical presentation of a rare condition.
