Lumbar blood patching for proximal CSF leaks: where does the blood go?

Cassie Nesbitt1, Shalini Amukotuwa2, Caron Chapman3, Peter Batchelor3.   

Abstract

Epidural blood patching (EBP) is an important therapeutic approach in managing spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leaks. The mechanism of action of blood patching is likely to be twofold; fluid replacement having an immediate tamponade effect and the proximal flow of blood products having a 'plug' effect. The negative pressure gradient within the epidural space may be important to the rostral flow of injected blood and is possibly increased in intracranial hypotension. 2015 BMJ Publishing Group Ltd.
