title: [Unusual clinical course in a case of carcinomatosis of cerebrospinal meninges].
abstract: The authors report the clinical course of a case of carcinomatosis of the cerebrospinal meninges with frequent sudden rises of intracranial pressure and with lethal outcome. The primary tumour was a mucinous carcinoma of the ovary. In treatment Pudenz valve was used successfully for connecting the subarachnoid space of the spinal cord with the peritoneal cavity. This shunting of the cerebrospinal fluid caused no dissemination of the neoplasm within the peritoneal cavity.
