  • Title: Decrease in size of intrathoracic meningocele following insertion of a ventriculo-venous shunt.
    Author: Mahboubi S, Schut L.
    Journal: Pediatr Radiol; 1977 Mar 17; 5(3):178-80. PubMed ID: 322070.
    Abstract:
    A case of spontaneous disappearance of an intrathoracic meningocele following insertion of a ventriculo-venous shunt is reported. The shunt was performed for treatment of hydrocephalus secondary to Arnold-Chiari malformation. The intrathoracic meningocele reappeared when the shunt obstructed and decreased in size when the obstruction was relieved.
