  • Title: Postural headache and cerebrospinal fluid leak: believing is seeing.
    Author: Goadsby P, Jager HR.
    Journal: Headache; 2003 Jun; 43(6):681; discussion 681. PubMed ID: 12786930.
    Abstract:
    A 33-year-old woman developed persistent postural headache following epidural anesthesia (L2-L3 level). Iohexol myelography (L5-S1 puncture) demonstrated no epidural extravasation of contrast material (Figure A), but subsequent computed tomography (CT) axial images (B, C) revealed leakage of dye through the needle track of the L5-S1 puncture (arrows). No leakage of contrast medium was found at the site of the L2-L3 epidural puncture.
