Abstract

The authers experienced a case of cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea in a 9 years old Korean boy who had been suffered from repeated meningitis and persistent clear watery nasal discharge. On fluorscin dye test, bright yellowish green nasal discharge was noticed from the left nostril 15 minutes after injection of 0.5c. c* of 5% fluorscin into the lumbar soine. But we couldn’t assume the exact site of fistula. We present the case with brief review of literature.
