The placement of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is the most common form of treatment for hydrocephalus.The distal end of the VP shunt is commonly placed in the peritoneal cavity. Various complications of the distal end of the shunt have been described in the literature.We report an unusual case of perforation of the distal end of the VP shunt into the bladder, with vesical calculus formation.
脑室腹腔(VP)分流术是脑积水最常见的治疗方式。VP分流管的远端通常置于腹腔内。文献中已描述了分流管远端的各种并发症。我们报告了一例罕见的VP分流管远端穿入膀胱并形成膀胱结石的病例。
