Operation Strategy And Prognosis Of Children With Posterior Fossa Tumor And Hydrocephalus

Objective: To analyse the clinical characteristics of children with posterior fossa tumor complicated with hydrocephalus,in order to choose the appropriate mode of operation to achieve good clinical effect. Methods: The clinical data of 34 cases of posterior fossa tumor combined with hydrocephalus in children are retrospectively reviewed. Results: Before tumor resection performed lateral ventricle drainage boreholeor lateral ventriculo peritoneal shunt in patients with clinical symptoms of high intracranial pressure quickly got long remission, intraoperative tumors were exposed good and were excised easier, quicker postoperative recovery and less complications were relatively light; in cases of simple for tumor resection, preoperative by removal of water and diuresis can only temporarily alleviate the symptoms, and the tumor and surrounding tissue during the operation of extrusion, and obviously adhesive, resection of the time-consuming and postoperative recovery was slow. Different operation mode has no effect on the tumor excision and postoperative complications, the P values were 0.354,0.673. Conclusions: The patients with severe hydrocephalus, serious illness in children patients with tumors of posterior cranial fossa in time to tumor resection on lateral ventriculo peritoneal shunt can reach the purpose of better surgical treatment.
