[Spontaneous intracranial hypotension syndrome. A case].

We report a 49-year-old woman with spontaneous intra-cranial hypotension. this characteristic syndrome associates postural headache and a low cerebro-spinal fluid pressure. It was confirmed by lumbar puncture and magnetic resonance imagery. We describe the clinical and the cerebro-spinal fluid features, the radiological appearances, and the clinical and radiological course. The interests of this diagnosis are, first, its spontaneous benign course and, second, to avoid unnecessary invasive investigations.
