Abstract
A case of spontaneous disappearance of an intrathoracic meningocele following insertion of a ventriculo-venous shunt is reported. The shunt was performed for treatment of hydrocephalus secondary to Arnold-Chiari malformation. The intrathoracic meningocele reappeared when the shunt obstructed and decreased in size when the obstruction was relieved.Entities:
