Abstract
Key points: Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea (sCSFR) is often accompanied by an increase in intracranial pressure (ICP). The widening of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is an indicator of increased ICP. Using CT to measure ONSD is a simple and noninvasive auxiliary method for determining high ICP in sCSFR patients.
期刊介绍:
International Forum of Allergy & Rhinologyis a peer-reviewed scientific journal, and the Official Journal of the American Rhinologic Society and the American Academy of Otolaryngic Allergy.
International Forum of Allergy Rhinology provides a forum for clinical researchers, basic scientists, clinicians, and others to publish original research and explore controversies in the medical and surgical treatment of patients with otolaryngic allergy, rhinologic, and skull base conditions. The application of current research to the management of otolaryngic allergy, rhinologic, and skull base diseases and the need for further investigation will be highlighted.
