Intracranial hypotension syndrome

The range of normal intracranial pressure, as measured by lumbar puncture, should be 7.84 to 11.8 kPa (80 to 120 mmH2O). Intracranial hypotension, also known as low CSF pressure headache, is a disorder of intracranial pressure where the intracranial pressure is below the normal range (less than 70mmH20). Because there are generally no serious consequences, they are often not paid enough attention, but it is not uncommon in clinical practice.
