How to keep fever after hydrocephalus shunt surgery

  What is hydrocephalus?  First of all, we need to realize that hydrocephalus is not a single disease, it is caused by some pathological factors that make the cerebrospinal fluid absorption is impaired, circulation is obstructed or excessive secretion and lead to excessive intracranial cerebrospinal fluid stock, progressive dilation of the ventricular system or subarachnoid dilation, and cause a series of symptoms, typical symptoms are headache, weakness of lower limbs, unstable starting or gait standing, urinary incontinence, ataxia, unresponsiveness, incontinence, progressive dementia, bedridden, constipation, blurred vision, vertigo and seizures, etc. Urinary and fecal incontinence, progressive dementia, bedridden, constipation, blurred vision, edema of the optic nerve papillae, occasional diplopia, vertigo and seizures, etc.  How is hydrocephalus treated?  Most clinical treatment for hydrocephalus is shunt surgery, but some patients with obstructive hydrocephalus can also be treated with neuroendoscopic fistula surgery. However, for most patients with hydrocephalus, shunt surgery is still the main treatment, especially ventriculoperitoneal shunt is a classic procedure. However, there are problems and shortcomings in this traditional shunt surgery, and the high incidence of postoperative infection and shunt blockage has become a major problem in neurosurgery.  What should I do if I have fever after hydrocephalus shunt surgery?  What if I have a fever after hydrocephalus shunt surgery? It is very likely that there are postoperative complications, or there is an infection, or there is a blocked shunt. So what should I do at this point? Let’s look at a case. Xiao Zhong was a patient with hydrocephalus from Jiangxi who was treated locally with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt, but after a period of time, he developed dizziness and eye distention again. The doctor considered that the shunt was blocked and replaced the shunt pump, and the patient’s symptoms were relieved. The patient’s symptoms were relieved. Later, the patient had another attack and was treated for two weeks with no improvement, and still had intermittent high fever and unconsciousness. What should we do if we have fever after hydrocephalus shunt surgery like this? Xiao Zhong’s family brought him to the hospital after a lot of understanding. When Xiao Zhong first arrived at the hospital, he was in a very poor state, in a coma, with tonic and tremulous limbs. The diagnosis of intracranial Acinetobacter baumannii infection after shunt was confirmed, and this condition is quite difficult to treat, and most conventional treatments in general hospitals are ineffective. We applied our unique cerebrospinal fluid specialty technology to perform special treatment such as long-range drainage of cerebrospinal fluid, cerebrospinal fluid purification, and modified ventriculoperitoneal shunt surgery, and Xiao Zhong eventually recovered successfully.  Cerebrospinal fluid specialty techniques for hydrocephalus and post-shunt complications Conventional traditional hydrocephalus shunt surgery carries a greater risk of post-operative complications such as infection and blocked tubes, for which there is often no good solution in many local hospitals. This is where finding the right kind of treatment becomes very important. We have a complete set of special treatment techniques for cerebrospinal fluid that can provide targeted and personalized special treatment for hydrocephalus and various post-operative complications, achieving ideal results.
