Non-traumatic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhoea is a rare condition. We describe a case of a 62-year-old woman with pneumococcal bacterial meningitis who later was found to have CSF rhinorrhoea secondary to an eroding skull base tumour, which was proven to be pituitary macroadenoma on biopsy. She recovered well from meningitis without any neurological sequelae and underwent trans-sphenoidal surgery for tumour removal as well as dural repair.
非创伤性脑脊液鼻漏是一种罕见的病症。我们描述了一例62岁女性患者,她患有肺炎球菌性细菌性脑膜炎,后来被发现因颅底肿瘤侵蚀导致脑脊液鼻漏,活检证实该肿瘤为垂体大腺瘤。她从脑膜炎中康复良好,没有任何神经后遗症,并接受了经蝶窦手术以切除肿瘤并进行硬脑膜修复。
