Thrombosis and embolism complicating ventriculoatrial shunt for hydrocephalus: echocardiographic findings.

The echocardiographic findings of a right atrial thrombus and its migration to the right ventricle are presented. The thrombus occurred as a complication of an infected ventriculoatrial shunt system of the Pudenz-Heyer type for hydrocephalus.

Success rates and complications of ventriculoperitoneal and ventriculoatrial shunting: A systematic review

Background and Aims: The insertion of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) and ventriculoatrial (VA) shunts is the first-line treatment of patients with hydrocephalus and normal-pressure hydrocephalus. The provision of a safety profile for shunting in the treatment of hydrocephalus patients is very important. This study aimed to determine the success rates and complications of VP and VA shunting in patien...

An echocardiographic study of perimembranous ventricular septal defect with left ventricular to right atrial shunting.

Twenty nine patients with isolated perimembranous ventricular septal defects were investigated by M mode, cross sectional, and pulsed Doppler echocardiography. Tricuspid valve anomalies were present in all six patients with a left ventricular-right atrial shunt but in only six (26%) of 23 patients who had interventricular shunts only. Systolic flutter of the tricuspid valve was shown in five (8...

RE: Reasons, procedures, and outcomes in ventriculoatrial shunts: A single-center experience

BACKGROUND Ventricular shunts are used to drain cerebrospinal fluid into extra-cranial spaces. Ventriculoatrial (VA) shunts are provided to transfer cerebrospinal fluid from the cerebral ventricle into the right atrium of the heart. A single center experience of indications, procedure, and clinical outcomes in VA shunt was presented in current study. METHODS VA shunts were applied in 10 patie...

Calcified right atrial and pulmonary artery mass after ventriculoatrial shunt insertion.

Insertion of ventriculoatrial (VA) shunts is an effective method of draining cerebrospinal fluid from the cerebral ventricle to the right atrium and significantly improves the survival of patients with hydrocephalus. Some patients who received a VA shunt subsequently developed complications, including thrombus formation around the intracardiac end of the catheter and thromboembolism. The relati...

Late complications of hemispherectomy: report of a case relieved by surgery.

A case of Sturge-Weber disease treated with left hemispherectomy presented, 11 years later, with complications related to delayed intracranial haemorrhage. A loculation syndrome of the right lateral ventricle was detected and it was corrected by a ventriculoatrial shunt operation. The side of the hemispherectomy was evacuated of all the chronic products of haemorrhage, including the subdural me...
