If you are experiencing a persistent clear nasal discharge, especially after trauma or surgery, it may be more than a common cold—it could be CSF (Cerebrospinal Fluid) rhinorrhea. Left untreated, this condition can lead to serious infections like meningitis. I’m Dr. Anil Gwaliorkar, offering endonasal CSF rhinorrhea repair in Indore using state-of-the-art endoscopic techniques for safe and effective outcomes.

What is CSF Rhinorrhea?

CSF rhinorrhea is a condition where cerebrospinal fluid leaks from the brain into the nose due to a tear or defect in the skull base. The fluid usually drips from one side of the nose and may increase when bending forward or straining.

Causes include:

  • Head trauma (accidents, falls)
  • Skull base or sinus surgery
  • Tumors
  • Congenital defects
  • Spontaneous leaks (rare but possible)

Signs You May Need CSF Rhinorrhea Repair

  • Persistent clear watery nasal discharge
  • Headaches that worsen when upright
  • History of head trauma or surgery
  • Recurrent meningitis
If you have any of these symptoms, it’s essential to consult an experienced specialist for evaluation and treatment. I offer top CSF rhinorrhoea repair surgery in Indore, backed by advanced diagnostics and a multidisciplinary approach.

Endonasal CSF Rhinorrhea Repair – A Minimally Invasive Approach

Endonasal repair is a modern, scar-free technique that accesses the leak site through the nasal passages without external incisions. The advantages include:
  • Less pain and faster healing
  • Shorter hospital stay
  • No visible scarring
  • High success rate

Step-by-Step Procedure Overview

Here’s how endonasal CSF rhinorrhea repair in Indore is performed:

1. Diagnostic Phase

  • Nasal endoscopy and imaging (CT/MRI)

2. Surgical Repair

  • Location of the defect and precise repair using fat, fascia, cartilage, or synthetic grafts
