Abstract
Two cases were presented in which the preoperative diagnosis of abdominal CSF pseudocyst was made by computed tomography (CT). The collection could be well outlined by this method, and measurement of density values characterized the contents was a water density; the relationship of portions of the shunt catheter to the pseudocyst could also be demonstrated. In a patient with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt who develops abdominal signs of syptoms, CT can provide the definitive diagnosis of this entity.
