    Abstract:
    The present paper describes a new method for repairing the CSF rhinorrhea from the sella turcica using frontal muscle--galea aponeurotica--periosteum flap with blood vessel pedicle through cranial-nasal approach. This new method possesses the following advantages: short approach, clear field of vision, nose injury, few complications and less cosmetic influence. The flap, led into the sphenoid sinus Via the frontal sinus or the anterior cranial base and nasal roof, Survived and grew well due to its sufficient circulation and strong resistance to infection. For all the five cases described in this paper, among which three had accepted two or three repairs before, the CSF rhinorrhea ceased after only one procedure.
