inform yourself about the procedure which needs to be done and decide from there. In this country there are many good doctors but to be honest such a delicate surgery i would not do here after i just read a bit about the procedure.

Procedure
The defect site can be repaired either from the brain or the sinus side of the skull base. Repairing a CSF leak site from the brain side requires a cut through the skull, slight retraction of the brain away from the skull base to identify and ultimately repair the defect. These procedures are typically performed by a neurosurgeon. The failure rates of repair from the brain side are quoted as high as 25%.
