Offering up-to-date, multidisciplinary coverage of this nuanced and
evolving field, Cerebrospinal Fluid Rhinorrhea provides a
comprehensive overview of the evaluation and diagnosis, as well as
the medical and surgical management options, for all causes of
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea. It covers all aspects of CSF
leaks, synthesizing current knowledge on pathophysiology,
diagnosis, perioperative care, and operative techniques for this
complex group of patients. Leading experts in otolaryngology and
neurosurgery, as well as ophthalmology, neurology, and radiology,
provide detailed coverage of the distinctions between management of
patients with differing etiologies of CSF rhinorrhea, including
spontaneous, traumatic/iatrogenic, and tumor-related. Focuses
exclusively on the comprehensive evaluation, and management of
patients presenting with CSF leaks from the anterior cranial base,
offering a reliable, one-stop resource for experienced clinicians
as well as those in training. Covers the full breadth of
cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea, with expert discussion of
spontaneous CSF leaks, including evolving management techniques for
patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension; traumatic CSF
leaks, including advanced management of complex anterior cranial
base trauma; and up-to-date techniques for intraoperative skull
base reconstruction after tumor resection. Includes tips and pearls
on surgical approaches and postoperative management strategies for
this complex and varied patient population. Features abundant
high-definition images of anatomy, radiographic imaging, and
intraoperative techniques, as well as videos that highlight
intraoperative techniques in patients with spontaneous, traumatic,
and tumor-related CSF leaks. Provides a detailed review of the
different laboratory, examination (endoscopic nasal, as well as
ophthalmologic) and imaging studies used to evaluate patients with
CSF leaks. Discusses the evaluation and growing medical and
procedural management options for patients with idiopathic
intracranial hypertension. Offers state-of-the-art reconstruction
options for CSF leaks and complex skull base defects, ranging from
the nasoseptal flap and beyond. Addresses the controversial role of
lumbar drains in CSF leak management, as will new and upcoming
technological advances in operating room instrumentation. An eBook
version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access
all of the text, figures and references, with the ability to
search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have
content read aloud.
