Abstract

The article focuses on transformative insights into spinal cerebrospinal fluid leaks and their association with persistent headache syndromes. Topics include the emerging understanding that the majority of individuals with imaging-proven Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) leaks have normal opening pressure, the recognition of CSF-venous fistulas as a significant cause of spontaneous intracranial hypotension, and the occurrence of persistent headache syndromes following dural punctures during epidurals.
