Obstructive hydrocephalus of uncommon etiology: case report and neurosurgical management of aqueductal web presenting in adolescence.
Introduction: Aqueductal webs are a rare cause of obstructive hydrocephalus. Accurate diagnosis and intervention can prevent neurological complications.
Case presentation: Herein, we describe a case of a child presenting with headaches and vomiting. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed obstructive tri-ventricular hydrocephalus caused by an aqueductal web. Endoscopic third ventriculostomy (ETV) was successfully performed to restore cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow.
Conclusion: This case underscores the importance of phase-contrast and T2-weighted cinematic magnetic resonance imaging of cerebrospinal fluid flow for diagnosis of aqueductal webs. These modalities provide valuable insights into CSF dynamics and guidance of appropriate neurosurgical intervention.
期刊介绍:
The journal has been expanded to encompass all aspects of pediatric neurosciences concerning the developmental and acquired abnormalities of the nervous system and its coverings, functional disorders, epilepsy, spasticity, basic and clinical neuro-oncology, rehabilitation and trauma. Global pediatric neurosurgery is an additional field of interest that will be considered for publication in the journal.
