Presentation of the best cases submitted by LINNC online members

Last update on June 5, 2024

Jane Khalife addresses cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-venous fistula, an underrecognized cause of spontaneous intracranial hypotension. Through a case study of a 59-year-old woman, she illustrates the diagnostic process with digitally subtracted myelography (DSM) and the innovative, minimally invasive treatment of embolization. The patient presented with progressive positional headaches, memory loss, nausea, vomiting, and gait instability. Despite initial treatments, the patient's symptoms persisted, leading to the suspicion of a CSF-venous fistula.

Dive into this insightful presentation and witness the patient outcomes and follow-up, highlighting the importance of recognizing CSF-venous fistulas and the efficacy of DSM and transvenous embolization.
