Abstract
Slit ventrikül sendromu (SVS), ventriküler genişleme olmaksızın intermitant shunt fonksiyon bozukluğuna bağlı bulguların görülmesidir. Shunt'a bağımlı hastalarda nadiren dar ventrikül gelişebilir. Bu durumun ventriküler kaleterin tekrarlayıcı tıkanıklığına bağlı olduğu ve neticede kafa içi basınç artması oluşturduğu ileri sürülmektedir. Kliniğimizde 19 77 -1986 yılları arasında 105 hidrosefalik hasta ameliyat edilerek shunt konuldu ve sadece bir kadın hastada son iki yıldır mevcut olan 2-3 haftada bir görülen 1-2 hafta devam eden paroksismal hipersomnia nöbetleri görüldü. Tıkanmış ventriküler kateterin revizyonu sonrası hastanın paroksismal hipersomni nöbetleri sona erdi.
The slit ventricle syndrome (SVS) means a state of intermitant signs of shunt malfunction without substantial ventricular enlargement. It is sometimes observed in shunt dependent patients with small, slit-like ventricles. It has been attributed to recurrent obstruction of the ventricular catheter, which then causes an increase of intracranial pressure. In our clinic 105 cases of hydrocephalus patient were operated and shunt inserted between 1977 and 1986 and only one female patient presented herself with paroxismal hypersomnia episodes lasting than 1-2 weeks and occuring every 2-3 weeks for the past two years. Due to slit ventricle syndrome after revision of the ventriculer catheter her paroxismal hypersomnia episodes were stopped and she remained well since.
