ABSTRACT
Venticuloperitoneal shunt has been used in neurosurgery, for treatment of hydrocephalus, generally. The complications of Ventriculoperitoneal shunt are shunt obstruction, transrectal or intragastric extrusion, intestinal obstruction, bladder rupture, and catheter extrusion to umbilicus, scrotum or vagina. CSF hydrocele as a complication of migration or extrusion of the peritoneal end of Ventriculoperitoneal shunt has rarely been reported. Here a case of 3 year old bady, born at 38 week gestational age, is reported. The baby was noted to have painless, right scrotal swelling, one year after insertion of Ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The hydrocele of right side resolved fokkiwing herniorrhaphy of right side and revision of the shunt. Six months later, the baby presented with an enlarging left-sided scrotal swelling. Left side was also repaired.
