Abstract

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea is a dangerous problem. CSF rhinorrhea implies an abnormal communication between the subarachnoid space and the nasal cavity, with subsequent leakage of CSF through the anterior nasal apertures. requiring surgical repair. Imaging techniques have evolved from conventional cranial radiography to polytomography, thin-section computed tomography (CT) and intrathecal water-soluble iodinated contrast agent-enhanced CT cisternography. We present two cases of post-surgical CSF rhinorrhea in which the best diagnostic findings were obtained by CT cisternography.
