Endoscopic Repair of Spontaneous Cerebrospinal Fluid Rhinorrhoea Via Paraseptal Approach.

CSF rhinorrhoea poses a significant challenge even to most astute and experienced surgeons in its accurate localization and management. The diagnosis of CSF leak is ascertained on proper history, neurologic and otorhinolaryngologic examination, laboratory tests and endoscopic findings supplanted by appropriate radiologic studies. The exact visualization and atraumatic surgical technique using endoscope provides better lighting with magnified view, even in lateral recesses giving an edge over other techniques, thus enhancing the surgical outcome.
