Abstract:
A case of a 14-year-old girl who developed a spinal subdural hematoma after placement of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt is presented. Such a complication has not been previously reported. We believe that this represented an extension of intracranial subdural hematoma fluid into the spinal subdural space.
