Background: Leptomeningeal cysts are a rare complication of childhood fractures, being very rare in adulthood and usually related to previous trauma generated in children. Case Presentation: We present a case of “growing fracture” in a 70-year-old woman with a history of head injury in childhood, who clinically debuted with paresthesia-dysesthesia in the left hemicranium and hypersensitivity and pain in the affected area, and who was treated with surgical treatment. Conclusion: We review the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of this injury today.

Background Primary cough headache (PCH) is precipitated by coughing or the Valsalva manoeuver (VM), and its underlying pathophysiology remains unclear. Case report We report a case of recurrent cough headaches precipitated by VM with transient increase of intracranial pressure (ICP) diagnosed by measuring left sigmoid sinus pressure. Bilateral internal jugular vein valve incompetence (IJVVI) was also diagnosed by Doppler ultrasonography during a VM. Indomethacin was administered for over four months, and the headache had completely disappeared at the four-month follow-up. Conclusions Cough headache might be associated with a transient increase of ICP induced by IJVVI, which might partially explain the pathophysiology of VM-induced headache. Detecting the internal jugular vein during a VM might be used as diagnostic procedure for patients who have PCH during resting and VM. If it is necessary, monitoring the ICP could be considered.
