A Case Of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Typical Findings A case of spontaneous intracranial hypotension is presented. The patient was a 28 yearold female and was admitted to our hospital with orthostatic headache http://www.m.chiba-u.ac.jp/med-journal/76/76-4/764e2.html
Extractions: ¡¡A case of spontaneous intracranial hypotension is presented. The patient was a 28 year-old female and was admitted to our hospital with orthostatic headache and back pain. Spinal puncture revealed low liquor pressure. Myelogram disclosed narrowed dural tube and emphasized outline of cauda equina and spinal cord. CTM showed an enhanced area in the posterior site of dural tube. Her complaints were gradually relieved without specific treatment. We also performed gadolinium enhanced MRI which revealed meningeal enhancement and dilatation of internal vertebral venous plexus. These typical radiological findings enabled us to diagnose this case as spontaneous intracranial hypotension.
Extractions: Reversible Coma: A Rare Presentation of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension Jodi L. Kashmere, Michael J. Jacka, Derek Emery, Donald W. Gross Abstract: Background: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is a well-recognized neurologic disorder that typically presents with orthostatic headaches, low cerebral spinal fluid pressures and distinct abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging. Methods: We present a case of a rare presentation of SIH. Results: A 49-year-old man presented with a two week history of orthostatic headaches that rapidly progressed to encephalopathy and coma, requiring intubation. Neuroimaging revealed abnormalities typical of SIH; diffusely enhancing pachymeninges, subdural fluid collections, and descent of the brain. Treatment with an epidural blood patch reversed his coma within minutes. Following a second blood patch, the patient became asymptomatic. No cerebral spinal leak could be identified on magnetic resonance imaging or on a nuclear medicine technetium cerebral spinal fluid flow study. At six month follow-up, he remained symptom free. Conclusion: The mechanism of coma in SIH is presumed to be compression of the diencephalon from downward displacement of the brain. Although it is very unusual for patients with SIH to present with coma, it is important to recognize since the coma may be reversible with epidural blood patches.
Extractions: Intracranial Hypotension with Severe Neurological Symptoms Resolved by Epidural Blood Patch Philip W.H. Peng Abstract: Background: A patient with a constellation of severe neurological symptoms caused by spontaneous intracranial hypotension, which was successfully managed by epidural blood patch, was described. Case history: A 50-year-old woman presented to the neurological service with a two-month history of orthostatic headache. Associated clinical features included sensorineural deafness, ataxia and short-term memory loss. Magnetic resonance imaging showed downward displacement of brain structures, bilateral subdural collections and the postgadolinium images demonstrated diffuse dural enhancement suggestive of the diagnosis of spontaneous intracranial hypotension. Results: Following a lumbar epidural blood patch, all symptoms improved significantly and her headache resolved.

Extractions: Department of Neurosurgery, Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan. The authors report a case of bilateral chronic subdural hematoma in a 25-year-old woman who had occipital and neck pain. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed progressive caudal descent of the cerebellar tonsils (acquired Chiari I malformation) and a large eccentric syrinx in the spinal cord from the C3-T7 levels. Spontaneous disappearance of the chronic subdural hematomas resulted in radiographic resolution of both lesions, as well as clinical improvement. Theories of syringomyelia formation, the relationship to acquired Chiari I malformation, and the implications of this case are discussed. 2. J Neurosurg 1998 Feb;88(2):237-242

We report three patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension in whom spinal MR imaging revealed ventral extradural fluid collections that were centered at the cervicothoracic junction in two patients and extended throughout the entire spine in the third patient. These spinal fluid collections most likely resulted from the accumulation of CSF at the site of dural leakage. Knowledge of this association can be helpful in the
