Paras Health Panchkula Successfully Performs Advanced Endoscopic Surgery to Repair Rare Recurrent Brain Fluid Leak
The patient had been experiencing clear watery discharge from his right nostril for the past 3–4 months, which worsened whenever he bent forward — a common but often overlooked symptom of CSF rhinorrhoea, a condition where the protective brain fluid leaks through the nose due to a defect in the skull base.
Notably, the patient had previously undergone surgery nearly 8–9 months ago for a similar leak near the front part of the skull, which had healed successfully. However, further investigations revealed that increased pressure inside the skull had caused another weak area to develop a leak.
Advanced imaging investigations, including HRCT PNS and MRI Brain with MR Cisternography, identified a small defect in the lateral wall of the sphenoid sinus — a deep sinus located behind the nose — along with protrusion of the brain lining through the opening.
The team of specialists at Paras Health Panchkula performed a transnasal endoscopic repair, a highly advanced minimally invasive technique carried out entirely through the nasal passages. During the procedure, surgeons carefully accessed the deep-seated defect, repositioned the leaking tissue, and repaired the opening using the patient’s own tissue along with specialized graft material to strengthen healing.
Following the surgery, the patient was monitored with a temporary lumbar drain for 72 hours to reduce pressure on the repaired site. He recovered well without any further leakage or complications.
Commenting on the case, Dr. Gaurav Sharma – Neurosurgery said that cerebrospinal fluid leaks are serious conditions that should never be ignored, as they can increase the risk of life-threatening brain infections like meningitis. In this patient’s case, the challenge was the recurrence of the leak at a different location due to raised intracranial pressure. Using advanced transnasal endoscopic techniques, we were able to safely access the defect through the nose, repair the leak precisely, and help the patient recover without the need for any external incision. Early diagnosis and timely treatment play a crucial role in preventing complications.
Adding further, Dr. Pankaj Mittal said that this successful case reflects the advanced clinical expertise and multidisciplinary approach available at Paras Health Panchkula. With modern minimally invasive technologies and experienced specialists, we are able to manage highly complex neurosurgical and ENT conditions with excellent patient outcomes. Our focus remains on delivering advanced healthcare solutions closer to patients in the region.
Doctors further highlighted that recurrent CSF leaks may occur in different parts of the skull base if the underlying issue of raised intracranial pressure is not addressed. Long-term management therefore also focuses on controlling brain pressure to prevent recurrence.
This successful case underscores the growing expertise in advanced minimally invasive neurosurgical and ENT procedures available at Paras Health Panchkula, enabling patients to access highly specialized care closer to home.

राइटर्स फोरम का अनावरण: प्रामाणिक साहित्यिक अभिव्यक्ति और समावेशी रचनात्मक संवाद को बढ़ावा देने का उद्देश्य
‘जहाँ शब्दों को अपनी आवाज़ मिले, जहाँ लेखक अपने समुदाय से मिलें’ — इस मूल विचार पर स्थापित यह मंच लोकप्रियता या सामाजिक प्रभाव की सीमाओं से परे जाकर प्रामाणिक साहित्यिक अभिव्यक्ति और सार्थक रचनात्मक सहभागिता को बढ़ावा देने का प्रयास करेगा।
यह मंच प्रसिद्ध कवयित्री और लेखिका सुधा अग्रवाल के नेतृत्व में स्थापित किया गया है। प्रेस वार्ता के दौरान उन्होंने कहा कि इस फोरम की स्थापना ऐसे साहित्यिक वातावरण की आवश्यकता से हुई, जहाँ लेखकों का सम्मान उनके विचारों की ईमानदारी और अभिव्यक्ति की शक्ति के आधार पर हो, न कि बाहरी मान्यता या सामाजिक प्रतिष्ठा के आधार पर।
उल्लेखनीय है कि सुधा अग्रवाल का कविता-संग्रह हिरायथ वर्ष 2023 में टैगोर थिएटर में लॉन्च किया गया था। उनकी कविता-पुस्तक पर आधारित एक पिक्चर सहगल हाउस को द नैरेटर्स आर्ट सोसाइटी द्वारा रूपांतरित भी किया गया।
उन्होंने कहा कि राइटर्स फोरम केवल एक और साहित्यिक समूह नहीं है। यह एक गंभीर प्रयास है — ऐसा रचनात्मक समुदाय बनाने का, जहाँ लेखक निर्भय होकर स्वयं को व्यक्त कर सकें, सार्थक भागीदारी निभा सकें और संवाद तथा पारस्परिक सम्मान के माध्यम से सामूहिक रूप से विकसित हो सकें।
फोरम के उद्देश्यों पर प्रकाश डालते हुए उन्होंने कहा कि यह मंच उभरते लेखकों को आत्मविश्वास और गरिमा के साथ आगे बढ़ने के अवसर प्रदान करेगा, बिना किसी भय या दबाव के अभिव्यक्ति की स्वतंत्रता को प्रोत्साहित करेगा, मौलिकता और वास्तविक प्रतिभा को संरक्षित करेगा, प्रत्येक सदस्य को नेतृत्व के अवसर देगा और गंभीर सुनवाई तथा सार्थक संवाद के माध्यम से सम्मानजनक साहित्यिक सहभागिता सुनिश्चित करेगा।
उन्होंने आगे कहा कि फ़ोरम का उद्देश्य लोकतांत्रिक सिद्धांतों पर कार्य करना भी है, जहाँ निर्णय सामूहिक रूप से बहुमत की सहमति से लिए जाएँगे ताकि पारदर्शिता और समान भागीदारी सुनिश्चित हो सके।
