We report the fifth case of shunt-related brain abscess. Two prior cases have been associated with colonic perforation and infection with gram-negative enteric organisms. These cases strongly suggest that ascending shunt infection is possible despite bulk cerebrospinal fluid flow in the opposite direction and add to our understanding of shunt infections.
我们报告了第五例与分流管相关的脑脓肿病例。之前的两例病例与结肠穿孔及革兰氏阴性肠道菌感染有关。这些病例有力地表明,尽管大量脑脊液呈相反方向流动,但上行性分流管感染仍有可能发生,这增进了我们对分流管感染的认识。
