Abstract:
We have experienced two cases of intracerebral aerocele combined by persistent traumatic cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea. All of two cases were diagnosed incidentally during observation in simple skull X-ray films. We performed craniotomy for the repair of the dural fistula and treated successfully. Authors discussed the possible mechanisms of the intracerebral aerocele briefly.
