Abstract
Transclival CSF fistulae are rare. We report a 40-year-old female who presented with meningitis after a short history of CSF rhinorrhoea. The defect resulted from the rare notochordal remnant, ecchordosis physaliphora (EP), and was successfully resected and repaired endoscopically.Entities:
