A Clinical Registry of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension
Sponsor: Mayo Clinic
Summary
The purpose of this research is to determine the efficacy of paraspinal vein embolization for treatment of digital subtraction myelography (DSM) or CT myelography (CTM) confirmed cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-venous fistulas so that researchers can inform the development and design of future clinical trials of this technique.

Transvenous Embolization of Cerebrospinal Fluid-Venous Fistula
Transvenous embolization of a cerebrospinal fluid-venous fistula performed via percutaneous venous access under fluoroscopic guidance. The procedure involves catheterization of the paraspinal or epidural venous system draining the fistula and delivery of an embolic agent to occlude the pathological venous outflow and eliminate CSF egress. The goal is to achieve durable fistula occlusion and resolution of spontaneous intracranial hypotension symptoms.
