Abstract:

CSF fistulas of the lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus are a rare surgical pathology. Cerebrospinal fluid leak from lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus is observed with a frequency of 7.7% among all leakafe of the skull base. The article presents 3 clinical cases of patients with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leak from lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus and surgical treatments by transsphenoidal and transpterygoid (transpterygoid) endoscopic approaches with various postoperative results. The plastic surgery success of CSF fistulas from lateral recess of the sphenoid sinus doesn`t depend on the type of endonasal surgical approach, but on the plastic quality and the preoperative level of CSF pressure.

Keywords:

Cerebrospinal fluid leak
CSF fistula
lateral sphenoid sinus recess
transpterygoid approach
