Deskripsi

Postoperative pseudomeningocele is a common complication of craniotomies for tumor resection. Intracranial hypertension can hinder dural repair and potentially lead to refractory or severe cases of pseudomeningocele. We present an unconventional use of venous sinus stenosis stenting to treat postcraniotomy pseudomeningocele driven by intracranial hypertension.
