摘要：
A case of tension pneumocephalus that occurred after ventriculoperitoneal shunting is presented. We have reviewed 12 cases of pneumocephalus in association with ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement. This phenomenon occurs when air is forced through the shunt or enters through the cranial base because of: iatrogenic postsurgical connection, congenital fistula, trauma, or thinning of the cranial base. Ways of preventing and treating this problem are outlined.
