Spontaneous CSF Rhinorrhea Our Experience.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak occurs due to an abnormal communication between the subarachnoid space and sinonasal tract. We reported a retrospective case series of five patients of spontaneous CSF rhinorrhea. These patients were undergone successful repair with a single transnasal endoscopic procedure. This is seen in anterior part of the cribriform plate of middle aged obese females. HRCT paranasal sinus (1 mm cuts) was an effective modality of investigation in our study with ancillary investigations been CT cisternography. Endoscopic repair of CSF rhinorrhea carries a high success rate with very low morbidity rate.
