5-year follow up after successful craniopagus separation: Review on hydrocephalus and venous system re-arrangement
Introduction
Craniopagus is one of the rarest congenital abnormalities. Separation of craniopagus twin is associated with high morbidity and mortality, especially in total type, where the twin had shared dural venous sinuses. One of the complications after separation surgery is hydrocephalus. While detailed cerebral vasculature imaging is needed pre-operatively to ensure most optimal surgical approach, post-operative vasculature imaging is no less important to assess changes in cerebral venous system after separation surgery.
Case presentation
Separation surgery was successfully accomplished in a total vertical craniopagus twin with shared dural venous sinuses. One twin experienced hydrocephalus after surgery, while the other twin had CSF leakage from the wound. LP shunt was placed in both twin and they had good recovery. We then compared the cerebral venous structure in both twins, before and after separation surgery using reconstruction of CT venography.
Conclusion
Successful separation of total vertical craniopagus twin where both twin developed well without any neurological deficit is a very rare occurrence. Based on follow up CTV, cerebral venous system underwent re-arrangement to accommodate changing hemodynamic needs after separation surgery. This might give us new insight about cerebral venous system that favors good prognosis for craniopagus twin.
期刊介绍:
Neurochirurgie publishes articles on treatment, teaching and research, neurosurgery training and the professional aspects of our discipline, and also the history and progress of neurosurgery. It focuses on pathologies of the head, spine and central and peripheral nervous systems and their vascularization. All aspects of the specialty are dealt with: trauma, tumor, degenerative disease, infection, vascular pathology, and radiosurgery, and pediatrics. Transversal studies are also welcome: neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, neurology, neuropediatrics, psychiatry, neuropsychology, physical medicine and neurologic rehabilitation, neuro-anesthesia, neurologic intensive care, neuroradiology, functional exploration, neuropathology, neuro-ophthalmology, otoneurology, maxillofacial surgery, neuro-endocrinology and spine surgery. Technical and methodological aspects are also taken onboard: diagnostic and therapeutic techniques, methods for assessing results, epidemiology, surgical, interventional and radiological techniques, simulations and pathophysiological hypotheses, and educational tools. The editorial board may refuse submissions that fail to meet the journal''s aims and scope; such studies will not be peer-reviewed, and the editor in chief will promptly inform the corresponding author, so as not to delay submission to a more suitable journal.
With a view to attracting an international audience of both readers and writers, Neurochirurgie especially welcomes articles in English, and gives priority to original studies. Other kinds of article - reviews, case reports, technical notes and meta-analyses - are equally published.
Every year, a special edition is dedicated to the topic selected by the French Society of Neurosurgery for its annual report.
