“…Treatment options have included more conservative measures such as sterile dressings [6,11,19,20,23], fluids, and bed rest in positions to minimize CSF pressure on the presumed dural defect as well as minimize dural traction: lateral decubitus +/-hip flexion, prone +/-a pillow under the abdomen, slight trendelenberg [2,[4][5][6]18,21,23]. Dehydration and glycerol have been trialed [21], presumably to decrease CSF pressure and therefore promote fistulous tract healing.…”
