A C/O EDH WITH SDH WITH ICH WAS OPERATED 6 WEEKS AGO. ON 10TH POD ON REMOVAL OF STITCHES PT. DEVELOPED CSF LEAK FROM OP. SITE. RESUTURING ALSO FAILED TO CONTROL IT & HENCE A REEXPLORATION & REPAIR USING GORTEX & FIBRIN GLUE WAS DONE. THIS TOO FAILED TO CONTROL THE LEAK & A CLD WAS PUT IN. THREE DAYS POST CLD PERITUBAL LEAK STARTED & IT HAD TO BE REMOVED FOR FEAR OF INFECTION. AT PRESENT THERE IS NO LEAK FROM THE CRANIAL SITE FOR LAST4 DAYS BUT SOME LEAK FROM CLD SITE. PLEASE ADVISE AS TO WHAT MORE CAN BE DONE FOR THIS 2YRS. OLD PATIENT.
