dc.description.abstractAlthough hydrocephaly has been recognized for years, its treatment and follow-up remain obscure. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt application is the most common treatment used in recent years. However, revision incidence and mortality are very high due to infection, overdrainage or underdrainage, and obstruction. 62 years old female patient was operated and ventriculopleural shunt performed in our clinic. Fifth day after operation persistant dyspneic complaints exists. Chest graphia performed and bilateral pleural effusion was seen. In this report, we present a case of hydrothorax after ventriculopleural shunt operation. Ventriculopleural shunting was preferred in this patient because peritoneal absorption disorder developed after recurrent ventriculoperitoneal shunt operations and revisions. The tension hydrothorax that developed is discussed in light of the relevant literature.en_US
