An Unusual Case of Post-Traumatic Headache Complicated by Intracranial Hypotension
We present a case of post-traumatic headache complicated by intracranial hypotension resulting in an acquired Chiari malformation and myelopathy with syringomyelia. This constellation of findings suggest a possible series of events that started with a traumatic cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leak, followed by descent of the cerebellar tonsils and disruption of CSF circulation that caused spinal co...
متن کاملIntracranial Hypotension with Multiple Complications: An Unusual Case Report
Background. Undiagnosed intracranial hypotension can result in several complications including subdural hematoma (SDH), subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), dural venous sinuses thrombosis (CVT), cranial nerve palsies, and stupor resulting from sagging of the brain. It is rare to see all the complications in one patient. Furthermore, imaging of the brain vasculature may reveal incidental asymptomatic...
متن کاملIntracranial hypotension caused by traumatic intrasacral meningocele
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is known to cause orthostatic headache. Spontaneous CSF leakage occurs under several conditions, such as lumbar puncture, spinal surgery, and fracture of the spine. Intrasacral meningocele is an anomaly caused by an abnormal prolongation of the meninges in the sacral spinal canal. Typical symptoms of this anomaly are low back pain, bladder dysfunction, and scia...

متن کاملA case of intracranial hypotension complicated with hydrocephalus.
AIM Intracranial hypotension may have variable clinical presentation. The imaging characteristics of intracranial hypotension are especially well depicted on magnetic resonance imaging studies. Although the clinical and radiological manifestations of spontaneous intracranial hypotension are increasingly recognized in many reports, many other abnormalities in this disorder and complicating cases...
