BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: A safe working trajectory is mandatory for spinal pathologies, especially in the midline, anterior to the spinal cord. For thoracic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks, we developed a minimally invasive keyhole fenestration. Thi...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To develop a fully automatic algorithm for the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) identification of patients with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH).
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is an increasingly recognized condition. Spontaneous intracranial hypotension is caused by a CSF leak, which is commonly related to a CSF-venous fistula. In patients with spontaneous intrac...
BACKGROUND: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak during endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal surgery can lead to postoperative complications. The clinical and anatomic risk factors of intraoperative CSF leak are not well defined. We applied a two-dimension...

PURPOSE: Skull base features, including increased foramen ovale (FO) cross-sectional area, are associated with lateral skull base spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (sCSF) leak and encephalocele. Manual measurement requires skill in interpreting imaging...
BACKGROUND: Postoperative cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage is the leading adverse event in transsphenoidal surgery. Intraoperative CSF (ioCSF) leakage is one of the most important predictive factors for postoperative CSF leakage. This systematic rev...
