ABSTRACT
The empty sella syndrome is applied to the abnormal extension into the sella turcica of an arachnoid diverticulum filled with CSF, which displace and compresses the pituitary gland. Such a diverticulum can erode the sellar floor and lead to CSF rhinorrhea through the sphenoid sinus. Recently we experienced a case of the spontaneous CSF rhinorrhea associated with the empty sella syndrome in a 55 year-old woman. The CSF leakage was repaired successfully by sublabial, transseptal, transsph-enoidal approach.
