Case Reports
Intracranial hypotension caused by anterior cervical CSF leak alleviated by an epidural blood patch [corrected].
We present a case in which a thoracocervical epidural blood patch was used to treat an anteriorly situated cerebrospinal fluid leak following 2 failed blood patches in the lumbar region. The challenge in identifying the source of the leak, deteriorating health of the patient, and risks from the procedure, contributes to the uniqueness of this case.
