Diagnosis and management of ethmoid cerebrospinal rhinorrhea.
In most instances of cerebrospinal rhinorrhea, the dural defect occurs at or near the region of the ethmoid roof. The skills of the otolaryngologist are of primary importance in the diagnosis and management of this condition. In almost all cases, the dura can be repaired exclusively by an extracranial approach.
