ABSTRACT
Intracranial hypotension syndrome is an uncommon manifestation of shunt overdrainage; characterized by a triad of postural headache, diffuse pachymeningeal gadolinium enhancement and low cerebrospinal fluid opening pressure. We describe a young female with recurrent episodes of postural headaches and reversible dorsal midbrain syndrome due to intracranial hypotension as a complication of shunt overdrainage, and a subsequent improvement following shunt ligation.
