In accordance with the Monroe Kellie doctrine, secondary venodilation may develop as a compensatory measure to the low CSF pressure, adding a vascular component with venous dilatation to the typical MR-presentation introduced as SEEPS (subdural hygroma, enhancement, engorged veins, pituitary hyperaemia, and sagging of the brain [3]).
Rarely complications may develop in the form of subdural hygroma and neurological deficits due to brainstem compression.
A complication occurred in two patients; a subdural hygroma without mass effect and a chronic subdural hematoma which were appropriately treated using burr hole and drainage therapy.
The tumor (classified as WHO grade III) had been resected 3 years previously but the patient had subsequently developed a subdural hygroma.
The "Virtual Off" feature may reduce the need for surgery in the treatment of subdural hygromas and hematomas, failed third ventriculostomies and shunt weaning.
Treating patients with hydrocephalus with an implanted shunt is not always just straightforward and simple: there are occurrences of under-drainage of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) where a large ventricle and clinical symptoms of hydrocephalus continue or the shunt implantation may cause over-drainage with slit ventricles and development of subdural hygromas [ 1, 2].
This period was limited to the first seven days after diagnosis in order to exclude delayed complication of injury (chronic subdural hematomas, hygromas or hydrocephalus) [ 12].
When I feel like I can't trust my brain 100%, Ludwig really comes in handy. It makes me translate and proofread faster and my output more reliable.
