ABSTRACT
Abdominal complications of peritoneal shunts for hydrocephalus, are not uncommon. Abdominal pseudocysts are reported between 1-4.5 % and most patients need surgery. A male patient of 28 years old with a history of intraventricular hemorrhage and newborn secondary to hydrocephalus presents itself. Multiple infections and derivative system revisions, the last for 14 years. Symptoms 6 months of evolution characterized by uncontrollable crying spells associated with marked sweating, no fixed hours and several hours. Abdominal ultrasonography shows suprahepatic abdominal pseudocyst. Treated by laparoscopic technique with release of peritoneal catheter drainage of the cyst and repositioning of peritoneal catheter in another quadrant. The abdominal pseudocyst is a rare complication of ventricular-peritoneal shunts and should be suspected in patients with abdominal pain. Once diagnosed, the treatment of choice should be laparoscopy.REFERENCES
