Placement and revision of ventricular shunts has saved more lives in Western society than any other neurosurgical procedure. Estimates of a total of 75,000 shunt procedures are done yearly in North America. The majority of these cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)-

Infections in cerebrospinal fluid shunts
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1985Bacterial colonization of cerebrospinal fluid shunts is a cause of significant morbidity, causing not only shunt malfunction and chronic ill-health but has also been implicated in an immune-complex glomerulonephritis. Almost all shunt colonizations involve Staphylococcus albus which gains access to the shunt during surgery and grows in microcolonies ...

Bacterial adhesion to cerebrospinal fluid shunts.
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1987✓ Bacterial adherence to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunts was analyzedin vivoandin vitro. Scanning electron micrographs (SEM's) of catheters removed from pediatric patients with shunts infected byStaphylococcus aureusorKlebsiella pneumoniaerevealed numerous bacterial cells and microcolonies, leukocytes, and erythrocytes attached to the CSF catheters ...

Therapy of staphylococcus epidermidis: infections associated with cerebrospinal fluid shunts.
Pediatrics, 1974This study describes cure rates for 93 different courses of treatment for 28 hydrocephalic patients with V-A shunts and 31 separate infections due to Staphylococcus epidermidis. Systemic treatment alone was effective two out of 39 times (9%).

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1994
The evaluation of hydrocephalic shunts is a common problem seen in emergency departments. The emergency medicine practitioner must be aware of the various types of apparatus, the functional considerations of the shunt, and the potential complications of obstruction. Shunt malfunction, either from obstruction or infection, can be life-threatening, and a

Epidemiology of Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunting
Pediatric Neurosurgery, 1995The epidemiology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting in the United States is not well known; however, with recent national surveys, the prevalence, incidence, and cost of these procedures can be estimated. The prevalence of CSF shunts in the United States appears to be greater than 125,000, though this is likely an underestimate of the true value ...
