We report a 32‐year‐old woman diagnosed with spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) and Behcet's Syndrome. Suspicion of SIH was based on cervical MRI findings, and magnetic resonanace (MR)‐cisternography revealed dural leaks bilaterally at lumbar region. MR‐cisternography is a recently performed technique and gaining importance in demonstration of CSF fistula.
