Article Synopsis
- Spinal intradural lipomas are rare tumors, particularly when not linked to spinal dysraphism, and are often diagnosed late due to their gradual growth and location.
- A case involving an eight-year-old girl revealed a lipoma and a cyst in her lumbar region, leading to symptoms like limb weakness and urinary issues; both lesions were partially removed surgically with a successful recovery.
- The discovery of fluid-filled cysts alongside lipomas is extremely rare, and while the exact origin of these lipomas is unclear, their coexistence with cysts may prompt earlier detection and intervention.
Introduction: In patients with hydrocephalus, the most effective technique since the early 1900s is through the implantation of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS). VPS can cause abdominal issues such as infection, bowel obstruction due to adhesions, or viscus perforation. In our patient, the combination of infection, bowel obstruction, multiple intestinal perforations, and anal migration of the shunt creates a unique blend of complications that may be caused by VPS.
