[Neurosonography in the surgical treatment of polycystic encephalopathy in children].
Intraoperative use of neurosonography in patients with polycystic encephalopathy was studied. Eight patients from 35 with diagnosed polycystic encephalopathy (PEP) were operated in 1985-1996. Neurosonography is the one of the most informative and effective intraoperative diagnostic tools in PEP patients. This method allows to visualize and control position and movements surgical instruments (catheters, needles, cannulas, etc.). It is also possible to drain the cysts located at different levels by changing the scanning view. Maximal effect can be attained only by simultaneous shunting of all cysts and ventricle.
