Yuen HK, Cheng AC, Auyeung KC Late-Onset Occult Cerebrospinal Fluid Leakage After Orbital Exenteration. [JOURNAL ARTICLE] Ophthal Plast Reconstr Surg 2008 May/June; 24(3):238-240.
Orbital exenteration can be complicated by cerebrospinal fluid leakage, mostly during surgery. Late-onset cerebrospinal fluid leakage that occurs years after the initial orbital exenteration is rare. The authors report a case of cerebrospinal fluid leakage that occurred 4 years after orbital exenteration that was not due to tumor recurrence. The leakage was managed successfully by the application of cyanoacrylate tissue glue. No complication was encountered.
