Sex differences in the clinical manifestations and treatment outcomes in a large cohort of spontaneous intracranial hypotension
In the present study, spontaneous intracranial hypotension in males was characterized by a delayed presentation, poorer response to the first epidural blood patch, and a higher risk of subdural hematoma. Caution should be exercised in the management of males with spontaneous intracranial hypotension. The generalizability of the findings needs to be further confirmed.
