Ventriculosubdural anastomosis

Anastomosis VentriculoSubdural is a surgical procedure used to treat hydrocephalus and other brain disorders. It consists of creating a connection between the lateral ventricle of the brain and the subarachnoid space, which allows fluid from the ventricle to flow freely into the subarachnoid space.

The procedure is performed through a small incision on the patient's head, usually in the occipital region. After the incision, the doctor finds the lateral ventricle of the brain, which is located between the hemispheres of the brain. He then makes a small hole in the wall of the ventricle and connects it to the subarachnoid space.

After creating the anastomosis, the doctor checks its operation to make sure that fluid passes through it freely. If everything works correctly, the procedure is considered successful and the patient can begin treatment.

However, this procedure has its own risks and complications. Some of them include infection, bleeding, nerve damage and other problems. Therefore, before performing the operation, it is necessary to conduct a thorough examination of the patient and discuss all possible risks and benefits of the procedure.



Anastomosis Subdural Definition **Subdural anastomosis** is a persistent communication between the water-deficient ventricle of the brain and the subarachnoid space, manifested by repeated vomiting with constant retention of barium in the subarachnoid space after vomiting during double contrast of the water-deficient ventricle.

Subdural anastomosis is characterized by complex, rapidly changing nystagmus caused by irritation of the retina. 8–20 hours after feeding, vomiting occurs several times an hour. Congestion occurs in the head, which provoke attacks of headaches, decreased vision, mental disorders, diffuse enlargement of the brain, and increasing paresis of the limbs. Then signs of arachnoiditis appear. Loss of visual fields of the central type, nystagmoid, paresis, symptoms of delayed pulse, and epileptic seizures may persist for several years. As a result of the development of adhesions, the activity of the cerebellum is disrupted.
