Infectious complications of ventriculo- and lumboperitoneal shunts in two patients are presented. Cerebrospinal fluid infection due to aerobic and anaerobic enteric flora was characteristic of each case. Both infections occurred several months after shunt surgery and were associated with colonic perforation by the distal limb of the peritoneal catheter. These cases emphasize this unusual hazard of peritoneal shunts and demonstrate methods for diagnosis and effective therapy.
本文介绍了两名患者脑室-腹腔分流术和腰大池-腹腔分流术的感染并发症。两例均以需氧和厌氧肠道菌群引起的脑脊液感染为特征。两种感染均发生在分流手术后数月，且与腹膜导管远端肢体导致的结肠穿孔有关。这些病例强调了腹膜分流术这种不寻常的风险，并展示了诊断和有效治疗的方法。
