ABSTRACT
Cerebrospianl fluid [CSF] leak is usually post-traumatic, but rarely it can be tumourous or spontaneous complications of nasal polyposis are exceptional. The association between CSF leak and nasal polyposis has been rarely described. Herein, we report the case of a woman with a history of recurrent meningitis and CSF leak, secondary to a huge benign nasal plyposis treated in a single neurosurgical procedure
