“…12) [11]. The exact mechanism is unclear but several etiologies have been suggested in the literature including the use of trocar technique during placement, silicone allergy, fibrous sheath formation, tubing stiffness, and local erosive pressure [11][12][13][14][15]. The mortality rate associated with bowel perforation due to a shunt is as high as 15% [16], in part due to the development of CNS infection.…”

CSF shunt complications: what the abdominal imager needs to know

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting has been a mainstay in the treatment of hydrocephalus for many decades. With a reported 33,000 shunt placement procedures performed in the US annually, and a lifetime revision rate approaching 50%, abdominal radiologists must be familiar with the typical imaging appearance of an array of shunt complications. Complications related to the peritoneal portion of the shunt have been reported in up to 25% of patients. We present a comprehensive pictorial essay including computed tomography, conventional radiography, ultrasound, and nuclear medicine examples illustrating abdominal complications related to CSF shunting and a review of the current literature. The purpose of this pictorial essay is to provide multimodality imaging examples of CSF shunt complications and familiarize the abdominal imager with the spectrum of findings.

ÖzetHidrosefali degi §ik hastalik durumlarmda ortaya çikan, ventriküllerde geni §leme ve beyin omurilik sivisi basincinin artmasi ile beiirgin bir bulgudur Beyin omurilik sivisi akimini düzeitmek için en sik uygulanan yöntem ventrikUlo-peritoneal §ant vasitasiyla beyin omurilik sivismin periton içine boçaltilmasidir. Cant kullanimmda en sik kar §ila §ilan komplikasyon enfeksiyon veya tikanmaya bagli olarak §antin i §lev bozukiugudur. Kendiliginden kolon perforasyonu nadir görüien bir komplikasyondur. Bu yazida yenidogan döneminde hidrosefaii saptandiktan sonra ventrikülo-peritoneal cant uygulamasi yapilan ve cant kateterinin anüsten çiktigi görüien iki olguyu sunduk ve iki olgu nedeni ile hidrosefalik çocukiarda ventrikülo-peritoneal cant komplikasyonlarini ve bunlarin içerisinde kolon delinmesinin önemini tarti §mayi amaçladik.

Ventriculo-peritoneal shunt placement is a commonly used treatment for hydrocephalus for diverting the cerebrospinal fluid into the peritoneal cavity The most common complication of ventriculo-peritoneal shunt is dysfunction of the shunt mainly due to catheter obstruction or infection. Spontaneous bowel perforation is a rare complication of ventricuioperitoneal shunt. This article aims to discuss ventriculo-peritoneal shunt complications and the significance of colon perforation among these complications by presenting two cases of anal protrusion of ventricuioperitoneal shunt catheter that is inserted in order to reduce the hydrocephaius detected in the neonatal period.
