BACKGROUND Primary diffuse leptomeningeal gliomatosis is a rare neoplasm confined to the meninges without evidence of primary tumor in the brain or spinal cord parenchyma. Cerebrospinal fluid diversion via ventriculoperitoneal shunt may be used as a therapeutic modality. Herein, we describe the first report of cytologic findings of a case of this neoplasm with shunt-related peritoneal metastasi...
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare activities of daily living and cognitive function after 6 months' rehabilitation training with or without ventriculoperitoneal shunt in patients with chronic normal pressure hydrocephalus following aneurysm subarachnoid haemorrhage. PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-nine subjects diagnosed with chronic normal pressure hydrocephalus following aneurysm s...
This report presents a rare complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunt, delayed development of brain abscess and foreign body granuloma formation adjacent to the intraventricular catheter. Both the complications occurring in the same patient is unusual.
A case of subhepatic cerebrospinal fluid cyst, an uncommon complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunting, is presented. Sonography could not reliably prove shunt tubing to be entering the cystic spaces. Results of computed tomography scanning were definitive.
The most common procedure to deal with hydrocephalus is ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt. The purpose of the shunt is to drain cerebrospinal fluid from cerebral ventricles to abdominal cavity. Many complications of VP shunts have been reported such as infection, obstruction, overdrainage. Abdominal complications occur in ~15-25% of VP shunts in pediatric patients, such as peritonitis, hernia, ab...
A case of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pseudocysts in a patient with a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is reported to describeacute unusual location of developmentof pseudocyst. In the setting of a VP shunt, the frequency of abdominal CSF pseudocyst formation is approximately 4.5%, often being precipitated by a recent inflammatory/infective process or recent surgery. Larger pseudocysts tend to be ...
Seeding of a central nervous system malignancy to the abdominal cavity is an uncommon but well documented complication of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt. However, the metastasis of a primary gastrointestinal cancer to the skin via a VP shunt is extremely rare. We report the clinical case of an 85-year-old male who presented with a right upper quadrant nodule over his shunt, which on histopat...
Background: Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ascites is an abnormal accumulation of CSF within the peritoneal cavity caused by peritoneum's inability to absorb CSF, following a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery. Excessive production (e.g, choroid plexus papilloma and villous hypertrophy), high protein secondary chronic infection (e.g. tuberculosis), brain tumours optic gliomas craniopharyngiomas...
