Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS) can cause orthostatic headache. However, it is difficult to differentiate POTS from spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) caused by cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. We herein report a 53-year-old woman who presented with SIH associated with POTS. A cervicothoracic and lumbar epidural blood patch rapidly improved not only the headache but also the orthostatic tachycardia, suggesting POTS secondary to SIH. This case suggests that a CSF leak can cause secondary POTS. Therefore, POTS should be considered in patients with orthostatic headaches, even in the presence of a CSF leak.
