The theory that the cause of communicating hydrocephalus is malabsorption of CSF at the arachnoid villi is not substantiated by experimental evidence or by physical reasoning. Flow-se... ... hiện toàn bộ

Head Injury in the Infant and ToddlerThis is a retrospective review of all closed-head injured children, ages 1–36 months, admitted to the Children’s Memorial Hospital from 1959 to 1978. Injuries ranged from trivial to those producing deep coma. A coma scoring system (to correlate level of consciousness with age and outcome) was devised. Lateralizing neurological signs, fontanelle status, retinal hemorrhages, seizures, and sk... ... hiện toàn bộ

Anterior Encephaloceles: A Study of 92 CasesAnterior encephalocele is a rare condition, and only a few large series have been published in the literature. Surprisingly, the incidence is much higher in Southeast Asian countries, including some parts of India. While the reported incidence in the West is between 1:35,000 and 1:40,000 live births, it is as high as 1:5,000 live births in Thailand. We present a series comprising 92 cases ... ... hiện toàn bộ

Management of Hydrocephalus in Children with Posterior Fossa Tumors: Role of Tumor Surgery<i>Objective:</i> The majority of children with posterior fossa tumors have hydrocephalus (HC) at the time of presentation. There is no consensus regarding the management of HC in these children. Here, we report the rate of cure of HC with tumor surgery alone. <i>Patients and Methods:</i> This is a retrospective study of 87 children with posterior fossa tumors in wh... ... hiện toàn bộ

Fetal MRI in the Evaluation of Intrauterine Myelomeningocele<i>Background:</i> Accurate fetal imaging is essential to the practice of maternal-fetal medicine. While ultrasonography has been the traditional mainstay of fetal imaging, its ability to resolve critical features of central nervous system (CNS) anatomy remains limited. As interest in intrauterine therapy for myelomeningocele has increased, so has the need for more accurate, no... ... hiện toàn bộ

Failed Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy in Children: Management OptionsEndoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) for obstructive hydrocephalus has a failure rate of 20–50% in various series. The present study analyzes ETV failures in 72 patients over a 2-year period and attempts to outline a management plan. Of the 72 patients who underwent ETV, it failed in 13. Seven of these failures occurred within 1 month, and in 5 others, ETV failed after 1–2 months. Anothe... ... hiện toàn bộ
