Conditions

Leptomeningeal Metastasis (LM)

Interventions

Prophylactic Intraventricular Vancomycin group:(1) Preparation of Lock Solution: Under a laminar airflow hood, preservative-free normal saline is used to dilute vancomycin powder to a final concentrat
Control group:In the control group, after each intraventricular chemotherapy drug infusion, 4 ml of tube-sealing fluid (or normal saline) was injected at a constant speed through the OmR using an inje
