Background and Importance: Lumboperitoneal shunts are commonly used to treat several conditions, but their use can result in significant complications. We discuss a complication of these shunts that has not been reported in the literature to date. Case Presentation: An obese, 41-year-old woman admitted to Rasool Akram Hospital complaining of a severe headache and blurred vision. The ...
OBJECT Eosinophils have been reported in children with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunts. The goal of this study was to describe the risk factors, relationship to infection, and clinical significance of CSF eosinophilia in a large group of shunt-treated patients. METHODS The authors performed a retrospective review of data obtained in all patients who underwent ventricular shunt placement or r...
BACKGROUND Hemodynamic load regulates myocardial function and gene expression. We tested the hypothesis that afterload and preload, despite similar average load, result in different phenotypes. METHODS AND RESULTS Afterload and preload were compared in mice with transverse aortic constriction (TAC) and aortocaval shunt (shunt). Compared with sham mice, 6 hours after surgery, systolic wall str...
right ventricular failure due to right coronary artery disease, right ventricular hypertrophy, stunning, abnormal septal motion, myocardial infarction, or non-homogeneous distribution of cardioplegia is an uncommon but serious complication of open heart surgery. we report a patient with severe right ventricular hypertrophy secondary to severe mitral valve stenosis and another patient with detac...
patients with coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction have high mortality with non surgical (medical) treatment. coronary artery bypass grafting improves survival and the quality of life. recently, revascularization without cardiopulmonary bypass has been presented as a viable alternative. the aim of this study was to survey the result of coronary artery bypass grafting with of...
Excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the brain is a condition known as hydrocephalus. It may cause a life-threatening increase in intracranial pressure (ICP). Nonsurgical treatment of hydrocephalus includes continuous CSF drainage, repetitive lumbar punctures (Lim et al., 2009), or osmotic diuretics such as mannitol or glycerol, but their effects are transient and limited. Sur...
PURPOSE In this study, we retrospectively investigated the prevalence of arterioportal (AP) shunts in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) and evaluated the changes in AP shunts after chemoembolization followed by external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). MATERIALS AND METHODS We analyzed 54 HCC patients with PVTT who were treated with chemoembolizati...
BACKGROUND Delayed intracerebral hemorrhage after ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt insertion is rare and has not been well investigated previously. Its characteristics is still unknown. OBJECTIVE We reported 12 patients with delayed intracerebral hemorrhage after VP shunt to investigate the potential risk factors and the outcome. RESULTS 12 patients (1.59%) of all the 754 hydrocephalus had d...
INTRODUCTION Hydrocephalus is one of the most common disorders of neurosurgery and ventricular shunting, the primary surgical intervention, malfunctions in 85% of patients by 10 years. PRESENTATION OF CASE Here we present a case of a 12-year-old girl with history of a vagal nerve stimulator (VNS) and ventricular shunt, most recently revised from ventriculoatrial (VA) to ventriculoperitoneal (...
AIM Timing of shunt insertion in infants with myelomeningocele (MM) and hydrocephalus (HCP) has been debated. Many authors have suggested to perform the repair of MM and shunt insertion during same operation. However, there is also an opposite view. MATERIAL AND METHODS We analyzed retrospectively 166 patients who underwent MM Sac repair to evaluate whether there are difference between these ...
