- Abstract
The article offers information on a study to examine various techniques used in identification of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea leaks. Topics discussed include advantages of endoscopic approach to the repair of CSF like high success rate, rapid recovery and discharge, and preservation of olfaction, fluorescent properties of fluorescein, and use of blue filter in the identification of CSF leaks. It further discusses use of intrathecal fluorescein in CSF rhinorrhea.
