Late hypertensive intraventricular pneumocephalus after a ventriculo-peritoneal shunting procedure: a case report

Descripción del Articulo

A 45-year-old male with neurocysticercosis complicated by hydrocephalus underwent a ventriculo-peritoneal shunt procedure because of secondary hydrocephalus. Four months afterwards he developed an intraventricular pneumocephalus and a porencephalic cyst in the right temporal lobe. Neuroradiology ima...

Four months afterwards he developed an intraventricular pneumocephalus and a porencephalic cyst in the right temporal lobe. Neuroradiology imaging studies did not show any bone defect in the base of the cranium, but a brain CT scan showed a porencephalic cyst located next to the right tympanic segment. An external ventricular shunt was placed and the former ventriculoperitoneal shunt was taken out, and neurological signs and symptoms improved. Afterwards, a right mastoidectomy and excision of the external shunt were performed. Control CT scans showed a progressive reduction in the intraventricular air contents. The patient was discharged with no symptoms affecting him. Two months later, pneumocephalus disappeared.Un paciente varón de 45 años fue sometido a una derivación ventrículoperitoneal por una hidrocefalia secundaria a neurocisticercosis. Cuatro meses después desarrolló un neumoencéfalo intraventricular y una cavidad poroencefálica del lóbulo temporal derecho. El estudio neuroradiológico no localizó algún defecto óseo en la base del cráneo, pero la tomografía cerebral muestra un quiste poroencefálico al lado del segmento timpánico derecho. Una derivación ventricular externa es colocada y la derivación ventrículo-peritoneal retirada, con mejora neurológica. Después, se realizó una mastoidectomia derecha y el retiro de la derivación externa. Las tomografías de control muestran una disminución progresiva del aire intraventricular. El paciente deja el hospital asintomático y permanece así hasta hoy. Dos meses después, el neumoencéfalo desapareció.Colegio Médico del Perú2012-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://amp.cmp.org.pe/index.php/AMP/article/view/1207ACTA MEDICA PERUANA; Vol. 29 No. 3 (2012); 161-162ACTA MEDICA PERUANA; Vol. 29 Núm. 3 (2012); 161-1621728-59171018-8800reponame:Acta Médica Peruanainstname:Colegio Médico del Perúinstacron:CMPspahttps://amp.cmp.org.pe/index.php/AMP/article/view/1207/677Copyright (c) 2020 ACTA MEDICA PERUANAinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:amp.cmp.org.pe:article/12072023-07-06T05:58:13Z
