Resolution of spontaneous intracranial hypotension due to a spinal CSF-venous fistula after a dynamic myelogram: illustrative case.
CVFs can potentially resolve spontaneously after high-volume CSF drainage during a diagnostic spinal myelogram due to the high viscosity of contrast material in addition to a decrease in transfistula gradient. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25194.
