Multiple Spinal CSF Leaks in Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension: Do They Exist?

Conclusions Among patients with SIH, multiplicity of CSF leaks was observed radiographically in none of the patients with ventral leaks, in 6% of patients with lateral leaks, and in 9% of patients with CSF-venous fistulas. These results suggest that patients with SIH can be reassured that the occurrence of multiple CSF leaks is negligible to uncommon at most, depending on the type of CSF leak.
