In this study, we present a case of a 58-year-old female with a 1-year history of a generalized headache who suddenly developed left-sided weakness accompanied by disorientation and changes in mood and behaviour. A cranial MRI plain and contrast revealed a right thalamo-mesencephalic mass with beginning hydrocephalus. The patient underwent endoscopic transventricular septostomy, biopsy of thalamic mass with ventriculoperitoneal shunt insertion under endoscopic guidance. The official histopathology results revealed a WHO Grade IV glioblastoma. The patient was subsequently treated with chemoradiation.

Abstract Background The ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) procedure is still the most used technique for management of hydrocephalus. This article reports a case of hepatic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pseudocyst as a rare, but important, complication of the VPS insertion. Case Description An 18-year-old male presented to the hospital complaining of temporal headache and visual turbidity for approximately 3 months with a history of VPS insertion for treatment of hydrocephalus and revision of the valve in adolescence. The diagnosis was based on abdominal imaging, demonstrating an extra-axial hepatic CSF pseudocyst free from infection. Following the diagnosis, the management of the case consisted in the removal and repositioning of the catheter on the opposite site of the peritoneum. Conclusion The hepatic CSF pseudocyst is an infrequent complication of VPS procedure, but it needs to be considered when performing the first evaluation of the patient. Several techniques are considered efficient for the management of this condition, the choice must be made based on the variables of each individual case.

AbstractObjective:This paper describes a patient with recurrent unilateral nasal discomfort and pain due to an intranasal tooth. A short overview of the literature is provided in relation to the aetiology, symptomatology, diagnosis and treatment of intranasal teeth.Case report:A 26-year-old man was referred with a history of recurrent left-sided nasal obstruction, facial pain and discomfort, and chronic purulent rhinorrhoea. Computed tomography revealed a nasal tooth, which was likely to have been the cause of these symptoms. After transnasal surgical extraction under endoscopic guidance, the patient was relieved of his complaints (at the one-year follow up).Conclusion:An ectopic tooth in the nasal cavity is a rare phenomenon, and in most cases the cause of an intranasal tooth remains unclear. The treatment of an intranasal tooth entails surgical extraction even though such teeth may remain asymptomatic; several cases have illustrated the potential significant morbidity associated with their occurrence.

<p>A 17-year-old girl presented with chronic headache and spontaneous CSF rhinorrhea. She had no history of head trauma. MRI of her brain showed aqueductal stenosis associated with triventriculomegaly with partially empty sella. Following insertion of ventriculoperitoneal shunt, her headache and CSF rhinorrhea completely recovered. Though very uncommon but aqueductal stenosis should be kept as a differential diagnosis for etiology of chronic CSF rhinorrhea.</p>

Objective This case emphasizes the safety of laparoscopy in patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunts. Summary of background data Previously published reports have suggested possible risks associated with laparoscopy in patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunt. Methods We report a case of a 17-year-old male with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt inserted 6 years ago to manage hydrocephalus that developed after surgery for medulloblastoma. The patient presented with a 5-day history of abdominal pain. He was diagnosed as having acute biliary pancreatitis. We performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the ventriculoperitoneal shunt in place. Conclusion The patient had an uneventful recovery with no shunt-related complications.
