Iatrogenic intracranial hypotension is a known complication of spinal anesthesia that can lead to more severe conditions, such as dural or cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). This report presents a case of intracranial hypotension in a young woman after lumbar anesthesia for a cesarean section that was complicated by CVST and subsequently by lobar hemorrhage, clinically presenting with severe headache and seizures. The diagnosis was made via cerebral magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, and the patient was treated medically.

Although RCVS can occur spontaneously, some cases occur after exposure to drugs. We describe the first case of RCVS in which methylphenidate, a drug with vasoconstrictive properties, is the only suspected drug.
