摘要
As brain tumor patients are transferred to a rehabilitation unit in a stable condition, subsequent neurosurgical involvement is needed to address later developing complications. Problems of cerebrospinal fluid circulation are the most common and include shunt malfunction. Infection is the next in frequency, with wound and shunt infection the most likely. Bleeding rarely occurs, especially acutely, and is more apt to be seen with chronic subdural hematomas.
