REGARDING PDPDH (postdural puncture headache), SEE
A clear definition of PDPH is necessary to be able to compare its incidence as reported by different authors. It is given by Carrie and Collins: “A headache occurring after dural puncture which has a significant effect on the patient’s postoperative wellbeing..."

in between (or going to two different sides)


Explanation:
the idea of "à cheval" is that of bridging two different sides, like a house that is built on the border of two countries: une maison à cheval entre les deux pays.
