We report a patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension. In addition to the cardinal feature of a postural headache and a low CSF pressure, the patient also had subdural hematoma demonstrated by brain MRI. Radionuclide cisternography revealed a CSF leakage in the intracranium. CSF leakage from spinal meningeal defects may be the most common cause of this syndrome. The headache is a consequence of the low CSF pressure producing displacement of pain-sensitive structures. Methods of treatment are identical to those for post-dural puncture headaches. We experienced a patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension developed in the intracranium who was successfully managed with a cervical blood patch.
