Multiple intracranial calcifications as a complication of external ventricular drain placement.

Cheol Ji1, Jae-Gun Ahn.   

Abstract

The authors present a case of multiple intracranial calcifications after the procedure of external ventricular drain placement in a 50-year-old man with pericallosal artery aneurysm. We believe that calcifications formed dust that had fallen into the track during the external ventricular drain procedure. The clinical features and radiological findings are presented with review of literature.
