Surgical intervention for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)
Surgical treatment of nasal and ear (otoliquorrhea) cerebrospinal fluid involves surgical interventions, during which the dura mater and the bones of the skull base are plasticized ( cranioplasty ) to restore the tightness of these anatomical structures and eliminate the pathological leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), both from natural openings (nose, ears) and from other pathological (usually post-traumatic) openings (fistulas).
To do this, it is necessary to carefully sew up the damaged dura mater or perform its hermetic plastic surgery with natural tissues or special materials, and the cerebrospinal fluid fistula (a pathological passage in the bones of the base of the skull) must be eliminated and thus restore the bone and membrane tightness of the contents of the cranial cavity.
