A very rare fact occurring after V/P shunt in the surgical treatment of Pseudotumor Serebri Syndrome

Introduction: In this study, it is aimed to present a very rare liver subcapsular accumulation of a patient after ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery who was diagnosed with Pseudotumor cerebri syndrome with progressive sight loss.     Case: The patient is a 38-year-old female who was diagnosed with lomber spondylose and later operated with stabilization and fusion surgery. Seven days after the operation her headaches became clear and blackout in her left eye was seen and she was observed with medical treatment. CSF  pressure of her was measured to be 25 cm/ water, so she was diagnosed as pseudotumour cerebri and taken to the operation immediately. On the 3rd day of post-operation, there occurred to be intense stomach ache and abdominal sensitivity of the case. After the scanning of abdominal CT,  7 cm of liquid collection was detected in the shunt distal of liver subcapsular area. Discussion: Liver pseudocyst should be considered, even if it is a rare complication when back striking abdominal pain and high liver enzymes are seen in patients with shunt dysfunction. USG and abdominal bt tests should be made for these patients. The drainage of the cyst and then the removal of the abdominal catheter should be applied.
