Skull Incision for CSF Leak Repair

In this procedure, the provider incises the skull and opens the cranium to repair a leak of cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, which occurs as a result of a break in the dura, the outer membrane covering the brain. The dural repair also resolves drainage of CSF through the nose or the ear. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries. This page does not show national, sample, or aggregate pricing.
