Abstract

The surgical management of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea has evolved with advances in technology and experience with endoscopic endonasal approaches to skull base lesions. The endonasal approach provides excellent visualization and access for repair of CSF leaks and obviates the need for a craniotomy. Over the last 20 years the endoscopic endonasal technique has been refined to provide CSF leak closure rates consistently higher than 90%. In this article, we describe our technique for closure of CSF leaks along the anterior skull base via an endoscopic endonasal approach.
