Transnasal trans-sphenoidal endoscopic repair of CSF leak secondary to invasive pituitary tumours using a nasoseptal flap.

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak following initiation of Dopamine agonist therapy for macroprolactinomas, although uncommon, has been described previously in the literature. Traditional management includes primary repair of the defect using either fat or fascia lata in conjunction with lumbar drain insertion. In this case series we outline two cases of CSF leak secondary to invasive pituitary tumour that were repaired successfully using a nasoseptal flap. We believe that this form of repair is effective and associated with minimal morbidity.
