Pituitary gamma knife surgery (GKS) is a treatment option for poststroke thalamic pain syndrome. Complications such as hypopituitarism, transient enuresis, and transient hyponatremia have been reported. However, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage has not yet been reported as a complication of pituitary GKS for poststroke thalamic pain syndrome. Herein, we report a case of delayed CSF rhinorrhea that developed 9 years after GKS for poststroke thalamic pain syndrome. A 64-year-old man presented to our hospital with bacterial meningitis and CSF rhinorrhea. Pituitary GKS for poststroke thalamic pain had been performed 9 years prior to his admission to our hospital. Computed tomography revealed pneumocephalus, fluid in the sphenoid and maxillary sinuses, and a partial bony defect of the sella turcica floor with communication between the paranasal and intracranial spaces. The CSF rhinorrhea resolved with bed rest and a lumbar CSF drain but recurred several days later. The patient underwent direct endoscopic surgical repair of the skull base. The sellar floor was covered with an autologous fascia graft harvested from the rectus sheath, and the sphenoid sinus was packed with abdominal fat grafts. The patient recovered, and the CSF rhinorrhea has not recurred for 2 years. Long-term follow-up is necessary after pituitary GKS, considering the complication of delayed CSF leakage.
