Spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea associated with dysplastic optic discs and a basal encephalocele: case report.

abstract：OBJECT:Physicians are often solicited by patients or colleagues for clinical recommendations they would make for themselves if faced by a clinical situation. The act of making a recommendation can alter the clinical course being taken. The authors sought to understand this dynamic across different neurosurgical scenari...
