Long-Standing Shunts and Recurrent Cerebrospinal Fluid Pseudocyst Causing Small Bowel Obstruction in an Adult

Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases
We report a rare case of a recurrent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pseudocyst causing small bowel obstruction in an adult with a long-standing ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt for congenital hydrocephalus.

Simple Patient-Based Transmantle Pressure and Shear Estimate From Cine Phase-Contrast MRI in Cerebral Aqueduct [PDF]

, 2012
From measurements of the oscillating flux of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the aqueduct of Sylvius, we elaborate a patient-based methodology for transmantle pressure (TRP) and shear evaluation.

Long-Term Neuropsychological Sequelae in HIV-Seronegative Cryptococcal Meningoencephalitis Patients with and without Ventriculoperitoneal Shunts: A Cine MRI Study

Behavioural Neurology, 2015
Background. Hydrocephalus in cryptococcal meningoencephalitis is most commonly managed with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt. This study applied cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to evaluate initial disease severity on long-term cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)

Flow Analysis of Cerebrospinal Fluid inside Catheters used for Hydrocephalus Patients According to Brain MRI Image by Means of CFD [PDF]

Chemical Process Design
(1) The treatment of hydrocephalus is the use of cerebrospinal shunts. These shunts are made up of different parts. One of the most important parts of these shunts is their catheter, which is placed inside the ventricle of the brain in order to drain ...

Ventriculo caval shunt: a salvage alternative

Egyptian Journal of Neurosurgery
Hydrocephalus management is particularly challenging in patients with contraindications to conventional cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diversion pathways. We report the case of a 37-year-old woman with obstructive hydrocephalus and a complex surgical history,

Temporal Interference Stimulation of Centromedian‐Parafascicular Complex in Disorders of Consciousness: A Pilot Study

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Treatment of disorders of consciousness (DoC) remains a major clinical challenge, and noninvasive, targeted modulation of deep brain structures has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility/safety and preliminary effects of thalamic temporal interference stimulation (TIS) targeting centromedian‐

Pleural Effusion Associated with Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt: Case Report

Sakarya Tıp Dergisi
Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunts are widely utilized surgical interventions in the treatment of hydrocephalus. These shunts are designed to divert excess cerebrospinal fluid from the brain ventricles to the peritoneal cavity, thereby improving patients ...

Biochemically Constrained Multi‐Omics Integration Reveals Protein–Metabolite Dependencies Across Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ProMetNet introduces a biologically constrained deep learning framework for proteo‐metabolomic integration by embedding Reactome‐derived pathway topology into neural networks. It captures non‐linear molecular dependencies and pathway‐level metabolic reorganization, enabling interpretable discrimination.
