https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nvp-tnks656.html The implantation of a subgaleal reservoir intracerebroventricular (ICV port) in order to apply ICV chemotherapy in patients with leptomeningeal cancer may be complicated by misplacement of the device, pericatheter leucencephalopathy, hemorrhage and iatrogenic ventriculitis/meningitis. Here we analyzed the occurrence of such complications in patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) treated with systemic and ICV methotrexate- and cytarabine-based chemotherapy. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 94 consecutive patients (1247 installations), who had received an ICV port for intraventricular chemotherapy for treatment of histologically confirmed PCNSL at our institution between September 2005 and October 2018. Infectious and noninfectious complications were systematically recorded including clinical, laboratory, and imaging data. In 9/94 patients (9.6%), a misplacement of the ICV port seen on the postoperative computed tomography scan was corrected immediately and chemotherapy was then continued as planned. In 5/94 patients (5.3%), symptomatic noninfectious complications were observed (four patients with symptomatic pericatheter leucencephalopathy and one patient with surgical scar dehiscence with CSF leak). In 8/94 patients (8.5%), asymptomatic white matter lesions around the catheter were visible on cerebral magnetic resonance imaging after completion of therapy. The rate of infectious complications was 6/94 patients (6.4%). No complication was lethal or required intensive care monitoring. This retrospective study shows that complications of ICV treatment have to be expected in a fraction of patients, however, in this series these complications were manageable and did not result in long-term deficits. Acute bronchiolitis is a significant burden on children, their families and healthcare facilities. It mostly affects children younger than two years of age. Treatment involves adequ
