  • Title: Syrinx-fourth ventricle and lateral ventricle-peritoneal shunts for congenital hydrocephalus with syringobulbia and syringomyelia: case report.
    Author: Kudo H, Kuwamura K, Sugimoto M, Tamaki N.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1993 Sep; 40(3):236-40. PubMed ID: 8346478.
    Abstract:
    A case of congenital hydrocephalus with syringobulbia and syringomyelia was reported. Although his neurological condition had deteriorated because of shunt malfunction, progressing syringobulbia, and syringomyelia, he recovered because of the direct communication from the syrinx in the medulla to the fourth ventricle, the shunt from the syrinx in the cervical spinal cord to the fourth ventricle, and the lateral ventriculoperitoneal shunt.
