Objective Epidural blood patches (EBP) are rarely performed at the cervical levels, primarily
due to fear of neurological complications such as spinal cord compression. We reviewed the …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Optimal diagnosis and management of spontaneous
intracranial hypotension remains uncertain. CT-guided blood patching has been described …

Objective Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) remains a diagnostic and therapeutic
challenge. Nonspecific clinical features and a reluctance to treat without confirmatory …

Object Recent evidence has indicated that the efficacy of the epidural blood patch (EBP) in
the treatment of spontaneous CSF hypovolemia (SCH) is still limited. Therefore, further …

Background: Epidural blood patch (EBP) has been shown to be an effective treatment option
for spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH). We investigated whether response to the …

Object Magnetic resonance imaging may show a fluid collection in the spinal epidural space
of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension syndrome (SIHS), but the …

Spontaneous cerebral spinal fluid leakage is increasingly recognized as a cause of
headache due to low intracranial pressure. The site of leakage can be identified with …

Once believed an exceedingly rare disorder, recent evidence suggests that low
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure headache has to be considered an important cause of …

Background: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) and related headache after
intrathecal pump implantation is a possibility. Knowing the exact location of the …

Background Epidural blood patch (EBP) is a recognized treatment for spontaneous
cerebrospinal fluid leak (SCFL) and is typically administered by the interlaminar approach …
