Hydrocephalus After Hemispherectomy And Other Resective Procedures
- 1. Aria Fallah, MD, MSc, FRCSC FAANS, FAAP Assistant Professor Department of Neurosurgery Hydrocephalus after hemispherectomies and other resective surgeries Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Conference and Family Reunion
- 2. No conflicts of interest 2
- 3. Objectives • Overview of the brain's ventricular system and CSF physiology • Explain the Monroe Kellie hypothesis in the context of hydrocephalus • Diagnosis of hydrocephalus • Discuss management options for hydrocephalus 3
- 4. 4 Anatomy of the ventricular system
- 5. CSF production • For each drop of CSF produced , the same amount should be absorbed • Infants and children produce 0.33 ml/kg/hr • Adult = 125mL ; 20 mL in the ventricle • In General 15-20mL CSF is made hourly 5
- 6. Where is CSF produced? • Choroid Plexus – 50-85% Extrachoroidal sources – up to 30% • Ependymal layer • Brain parenchyma • Spinal subarachnoid spaces 6
- 7. Where is CSF absorbed? • Arachnoid villi – primary site Other sites • Lymphatic drainage • Brain capillaries • Choroid Plexus 7
- 8. Physiology 8 Skull is a closed box, “mostly inelastic” Monroe-Kellie doctrine: •Sum of volumes of brain, CSF and intracranial blood is constant and incompressible •Increase in volume can lead to significant raise in ICP •Brain has limited compliance Alexander Monroe (physicist)
- 9. 9
- 10. What is Hydrocephalus? •An imbalance between the production and absorption of cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) •This results in an increased volume and an increase in intracranial pressure •*May or may not be associated with a change in the ventricular size 10
- 11. FACTS • Hydrocephalus is Common • Affects 1 or 2 of every 1000 babies born • Most common reason for neurosurgery in children • There is No Cure • No effective medical therapy • The only effective treatments are surgical • It is often a life-long condition • Children with hydrocephalus require long-term follow-up 11
- 12. Hydrocephalus • Due to increased production of CSF • Due to obstruction in fluid pathways • Due to impaired absorption 12
- 13. Anatomic hemispherectomy 13 • Highest chance for blood loss • Highest risk of hydrocephalus • Most certain procedure to ensure disconnection • Indicated for persistent seizures after functional hemispherectomy
- 14. Hydrocephalus following an anatomic hemispherectomy 14 In up to a third of patients
- 15. Hydrocephalus • Due to increased production of CSF • Due to obstruction in fluid pathways • Due to impaired absorption 15
- 16. Evolution of hemispherectomy techniques 16 • Smaller craniotomy • Reduced operative time • Reduced blood loss • Decreased risk of infection • Decreased risk of developing hydrocephalus
- 17. Decreasing the risk of hydrocephalus following hemispherectomy • Disconnective hemispherectomy as opposed to resective hemispherectomy • Decreasing blood loss at the time of surgery • Decreasing the amount of blood inside the ventricular system • Aggressive drainage of CSF following hemispherectomy 17
- 18. “Baby’s Soft spot” 18 Head circumference chart Detecting hydrocephalus
- 19. Symptoms and Signs in Infants • Abnormally increase in head size • Drowsiness • Irritability • Poor feeding / Vomiting • Breath-holding Spells, Slow heart rate, Bulging and Tense Fontanel • Head circumference growing faster than expected 19
- 20. Symptoms and Signs in Older Children 20 • Headaches • Learning problems • Nausea and Vomiting • Drowsiness • Loss of coordination and difficulty walking • Swelling of the optic nerve • Inability to look up
- 21. Diagnosing hydrocephalus 21 CT Ventricular shunt Cavity shunt
- 22. Natural history of untreated hydrocephalus • ½ untreated patients die • ½ survive with “arrested hydrocephalus” • Of these, 15% have normal cognitive and neurologic findings 22
- 24. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt 24 Journal of Neurosurgery: Pediatrics Alternative sites •Pleural cavity •Atrium
- 26. Types of valves 1. Differential Pressure Valves • Constant Differential Pressure regardless of flow 1. Flow-regulated Valves – constant flow • Constant flow regardless of differential pressure 1. Anti-siphon devices 2. Programmable valves 26 Source: Drake et al. 1998
- 27. Shunt complications • 3 types: • Mechanical failure – improper placement, migration, obstruction, fracture, disconnection • Infection/skin problems • Functional failure (inadequate flow rate of a functioning shunt) • 3 origins: • Shunt • Patient • Surgeon 27
- 28. Complications • Early complications: hematoma, bowel injury • Infection: most commonly in first 3 months, 90% of shunt infections within 6 months • Most common: Proximal shunt obstruction 28
- 29. Management of shunt malfunction • Confirmation of diagnosis • CT scan/FAST MRI, shunt series • Shunt tap • Site of malfunction • Rule out infection – fever, abdominal pain, CRP, ESR 29
- 30. Three types of shunt patients 30
- 31. 31
- 33. Is one better than the other? 33 Kestle et al. Childs Nerv Syst (2009)
- 34. Addition of Choroid Plexus Cauterization 34
- 35. Are we able to predict success? 35 with choroid plexus cauterization ETV Success Score Warf BC, et al. J Neurosurg Pediatr 5:143-148, 2010Kulkarni AV, et al.. J Pediatr 155:254-259.e251, 2009
- 36. 36 Results of ETV and CPC Weil, A.G., Westwick, H., Wang, S. et al. Childs Nerv Syst (2016)
- 37. Prognosis in hydrocephalus • Neurologic and intellectual disabilities depend on: • Cause of hydrocephalus • Thickness of the brain and corpus callosum • Requirement for a shunt • Presence of other brain anomalies • Associated conditions: IVH, infection, etc. may play a larger role than the hydrocephalus alone. 37
- 38. How should we measure success? • Number of operations? • Quality of life • Neuropsychological • Education/Job • Social interactions 38
- 39. Conclusion • Hydrocephalus is a deceptively complex disorder • Careful consideration of the cause of hydrocephalus is required in all cases • This may affect decision making, family counseling, prognosis and outcome 39
Notes de l'éditeur
- Most common disorder treated by pediatric neurosurgeons Over 30,000 shunts are placed annually in the united states. CSF constantly produced and absorbed.
- Siphon resisting valves prevent against siphoning. (Delta and other types of valves)
