The authors report a case of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) rhinorrhea in a patient with the empty sella syndrome in whom continuous intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring revealed intermittent peaks of raised ICP. Following a shunt procedure, ICP reverted to normal and the CSF rhinorrhea ceased for 10 weeks. The sella turcica was packed with muscle after the CSF rhinorrhea recurred.
