We report two cases of glomerulonephritis associated with infection of cerebrospinal fluid shunts inserted for the treatment of hydrocephalus and comment an another 70 cases reported in the world literature. Although infection of CSF shunts is common, the development of glomerulonephritis is rare. Non-pathogenic bacteria are the commonest infecting organisms. Antibiotics are generally ineffective in eradicating the infection and the glomerulonephritis, but removal of the shunt is usually, though not always, associated with complete resolution of the renal disease.
我们报告了两例与用于治疗脑积水的脑脊液分流管感染相关的肾小球肾炎病例，并对世界文献中报道的另外70例病例进行了评论。虽然脑脊液分流管感染很常见，但肾小球肾炎的发生却很罕见。非致病性细菌是最常见的感染病原体。抗生素通常无法有效根除感染和肾小球肾炎，但分流管的移除通常（尽管并非总是如此）会使肾病完全缓解。
