Popis: |
The management of posthemorrhagic hydrocephalus is difficult and not well standardized. We evaluated our management protocol for infants with intraventricular and/or periventricular hemorrhage (IVH and PVH, respectively). There were four deaths and two significant treatment-related complications in our series. We also observed two cases of isolated ventricle in patients treated with reservoir placement. After evaluating our series, we modified our protocol from reservoir placement to either cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage or ventriculosubgaleal shunt directly. We will reevaluate this new protocol in the near future. |
