Cerebrospinous fluid (CSF)-cutaneous fistula is a rare complication of neuraxial blockade. We present a case of a healthy patient who developed cerebrospinal fluidcutaneous fistula after an uneventful epidural catheter insertion for perioperative analgesia. The patient was managed conservatively and the fistula resolved without further issues. The literature is reviewed for similar reports and diagnosis and management of this rare complication are discussed. an epidural infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% (with fentanyl 2mcg/ml) at 8ml/h. There was no motor block, respiratory compromise or hemodynamic instability. Discussion Cerebrospinal fluid fistula has been described as a consequence of neuraxial procedures such as spinal surgery [1] and intrathecal catheters and drains [2,4]. However, only a handful of case reports exist describing it in anesthetic practice, both in adults [3,5,6] and children [7].
