[Multiloculated Hydrocephalus Complicated by Meningitis and Ventriculitis Treated with Staged Fenestration:A Case Report].

Multiloculated hydrocephalus following severe meningitis with ventriculitis is often therapeutically challenging. Neonatal meningitis is commonly associated with ventricular inflammation, and approximately 30% of patients show septum formation. Although placement of a single ventriculoperitoneal shunt system could serve as optimal treatment for a multiloculated cerebrospinal cavity that is converted into a single chamber, multiple devices are often required for disease stability. We report a case of multiloculated hydrocephalus that occurred after meningitis in a patient who was successfully treated with a single shunt system using staged multimodality treatments.
