Shunt Migration

Background: Cerebrospinal fluid shunting is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in the management of hydrocephalus. Although frequently performed, this procedure is not free of complications. Case description: We report a case of non-described shunt migration, in which the ventricle-peritoneal catheter, at the mediastinum level, crosses to the contralateral side. Conclusion: When we are faced with complications after ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgeries, we should consider unusual or even unpredictable possibilities.

Abstract Introduction Peri-implant fluid more than 6 months from surgery is a known complication of breast surgery.Differential diagnosis includes infection, inflammation,implant rupture and haematoma.Other than infection raised no concern until the identification of Breast Implant Associated Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma(BIA-ALCL). Method Retrospective electronic data collection for women 18 years or older who met the following inclusion criteria:(a)oncoplastic and/or cosmetic reconstructive surgery with placement of implant(b)peri-implant fluid collection after 6-36 months. Results In total,17 women with implants with a mean age of 56 years were included in the study.The mean time between reconstructive surgery and the peri-implant fluid collection was 23 months.The median peri-implant fluid collection size was 143 ml.14 of the 17 peri-implant fluid collections were benign.12 of 14 had polyurethane-coated textured implants.4 of the 17 were BIA-ALCL. Conclusions The current literature suggests that late peri-implant seromas arise from friction as the implant moves within the cavity and that this friction is increased with textured rather than smooth implants.In our unit 12/14 of the benign collections appeared in reconstructions with polyurethane implants.Furthermore,BIA-ALCL should always be considered in this situation and aspirate should be sent for cytology.Is this change in polyurethane implants a new entity?

AbstractObjective:We present an unusual case of parapharyngeal cerebrospinal fluid collection causing upper airway obstruction following a temporal bone fracture.Method:Case report and literature review of temporal bone fracture associated with parapharyngeal cerebrospinal fluid collection.Results:A 19-year-old man presented with cerebrospinal fluid otorrhoea and temporal bone fracture following a head injury. He was discharged after 48 hours of observation. The patient returned within 6 hours with sudden unilateral neck swelling and stridor after blowing his nose. Flexible nasendoscopy and computed tomography showed extrinsic compression of the pharynx, with partial upper airway obstruction. A literature review using Pubmed™ and Medline™ identified no previously reported cases of parapharyngeal cerebrospinal fluid collection associated with temporal bone fracture.Conclusion:This case illustrates a previously undescribed complication of temporal bone fracture. Raised intracranial pressure in the presence of a cerebrospinal fluid fistula may lead to airway obstruction, following temporal bone fracture.

✓ The authors describe a case of massive pneumocephalus following ventriculoperitoneal shunting for hydrocephalus. After multiple diagnostic and surgical procedures, congenital defects in the tegmen tympani of both temporal bones were identified as the sources for entry of air. A functioning shunt intermittently established negative intracranial pressure and allowed ingress of air through these abnormalities; when the shunt was occluded, air did not enter the skull, and there was no cerebrospinal fluid leakage. Repair of these middle ear defects prevented further recurrence of pneumocephalus.
