Abstract Intrathecal baclofen therapy is a well-established means of treating intractable spasticity and dystonia in paediatric as well as adult population. Complications of baclofen pump placement include infection, malfunctioning and refraction to baclofen. We report a case of eight year child suffering from spasticity due to cerebral palsy, who developed pseudomeningocoele due to peri-catheter leak. Steps and precaution pertaining to pump implantation in a child are discussed. Baclofen pump insertion in a child needs some extra precautions due to non-availability of pediatric implants and poor built of the pediatric patient to adjust with a bulky device. Preventive measures should be taken to prevent peri-catheter CSF leak.
