Between 1970 and 1986, 20 patients were treated for the 'Slit-ventricle syndrome'. Six patients had intermittent proximal shunt malfunction and 14 children had increased intracranial pressure with normal shunt function. All of the children in the second group had a relatively small calvarium. Treatment consisted of proximal shunt revision in the first group and a calvarial expansion procedure in the second. The authors discuss the differential diagnosis of the slit-ventricle syndrome and offer guidelines to appropriate treatment.
1970年至1986年间，20例患者接受了“裂隙脑室综合征”的治疗。6例患者近端分流管间歇性出现功能故障，14例儿童颅内压升高但分流管功能正常。第二组中的所有儿童颅骨相对较小。治疗方法为第一组进行近端分流管修复，第二组进行颅骨扩张手术。作者讨论了裂隙脑室综合征的鉴别诊断，并提供了适当治疗的指导原则。
