A 3-day-old male neonate presented with migration of the ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt tip through the patent processus vaginalis resulting in scrotal hydrocele. The association of myelomeningocele with hydrocephalus may have been a predisposing factor in this rare complication. Development of scrotal swelling or hydrocele in a child with VP shunt should be recognized as a possible shunt complication.
一名3日龄男婴出现脑室腹腔(VP)分流管尖端经开放的鞘突管移位,导致阴囊鞘膜积液。脊髓脊膜膨出合并脑积水可能是这一罕见并发症的一个诱发因素。VP分流患儿出现阴囊肿胀或鞘膜积液应被视为一种可能的分流并发症。
