Hydrocephalus following dural tear after spinal surgery is rare. Although a few cases of obstructive hydrocephalus caused by subdural fluid collection and communicating hydrocephalus associated with meningitis have been reported, the mechanism remains uncertain. Herein we describe a patient complicated with hydrocephalus after cervical laminoplasty in whom subdural fluid collection in the cervical spine and posterior cranial fossa rather than chronic meningitis was the main mechanism.

硬膜下积液而非脑膜炎导致颈椎椎板成形术后脑积水：病例报告。

脊柱手术后硬膜撕裂后的脑积水很少见。虽然已经报道了一些由硬膜下积液和与脑膜炎相关的交通性脑积水引起的阻塞性脑积水的病例，但其机制仍不确定。在此，我们描述了一名颈椎椎板成形术后并发脑积水的患者，其主要发病机制是颈椎和后颅窝硬膜下积液，而非慢性脑膜炎。
