Abstract
A 19-year-old woman with type 1 neurofibromatosis related sphenoid wing dysplasia underwent a lumbar puncture (LP) after an unexplained syncopal event. The cerebrospinal fluid work-up was unremarkable. However, 30-hours post LP, she developed marked enophthalmos ipsilateral to the calvarial dysplasia. The enophthalmos gradually resolved within 72 hours. We surmise that the patient's enophthalmos was due to an LP induced decrease of intracranial pressure in conjunction with the orbital bone anomaly.Entities:
