OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical efficacy of ventriculoperitoneal shunt treatment to patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension.
METHODS
The clinical data of 32 patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension who were admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital from August 2011 to February 2014 were collected.The underlying diseases included occlusion of the superior sagittal sinus (2 cases) and occlusion of transverse sinus (2 cases), and all 4 cases had a history of chronic otitis media.Twenty eight cases, with a history of oral contraceptive drugs (2 cases) and unclear etiology (26 cases), had normal venous sinus confirmed by imaging examination.All of 32 patients underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt.
RESULTS
The symptoms of 32 patients such as headache, nausea, and vomiting were relieved obviously after surgery.The symptom of visual impairment of 31 cases got better in varying degrees except that 1 case went blind before operation.Besides 2 cases of loss of follow-up, the remaining 30 cases were followed up for 2 years.Thirty cases had no perioperative infection.One case had infection 1 year after operation.No one had the shunt tube blockage.
CONCLUSIONS
Patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension should be taken active surgical treatment when drug therapy fails and could obtain satisfactory clinical curative effect by accepting treatment of ventriculoperitoneal shunt.By intraoperative ultrasound guiding lateral ventricle puncture can be achieved accurately.
