Аннотация

PURPOSE: The aim of the article is to present the new hybrid technique for ventriculoatrial shunt implantation.

METHODS: Two-and-a-half-year-old boy needed ventriculoatrial shunt implantation due to communicating hydrocephalus and impaired absorptive ability of the peritoneum. Because of a complete occlusion of the right internal jugular vein and critical stenosis of a distal part of the left internal jugular vein, the procedure was performed under fluoroscopy guidance in the catheterisation laboratory equipped with a 3-dimensional single plane angiography machine (Philips Allura--The Netherlands). At the level of critical stenosis of the left jugular vein, it was decided to perform a percutaneous venous balloon angioplasty. This procedure allowed inserting the ventriculoatrial shunt into the right atrium.

RESULTS: The whole postoperative period was uneventful. Now, the child is free from symptoms of increased intracranial pressure. The boy has been followed for 9 months. In the control MRI examination, the ventricular system did not change as compared with the previous study.

CONCLUSION: The disadvantage of the hemodynamic technique is a higher dose of X-ray irradiation in comparison to other techniques. The hybrid technique should be reserved only to very complicated cases.
