Peritoneal Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunt Insertion

Journal of Neurosurgery: Pediatrics, 2004
A minor modification of the technique of peritoneal cerebrospinal fluid shunt insertion allows more anatomical closure of the abdominal wound and may protect the shunt from contamination by superficial abdominal wound infection.

Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunting

2018
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunting has significantly improved the lives of patients with hydrocephalus. It was a major advance in the 1950s when safe implantable materials for the manufacturing of shunt tubing and valves were identified. CSF shunts, however, are not a cure for hydrocephalus.

A cerebrospinal fluid shunt: a theoretical concept

Child's Nervous System, 1995
An innovative shunt design for the treatment of hydrocephalus is discussed. It is based on a two-tube configuration which restores accumulator function to suppress intracranial pressure fluctuations emanating from the brain and resulting from changes in the subject's postural position.

[The cerebrospinal fluid shunt].

Archives de pediatrie : organe officiel de la Societe francaise de pediatrie, 2005
The cerebrospinal fluid shunt is one of the most common surgical procedures in pediatric neurosurgery. Nevertheless, an important rate of failure (mechanical, infectious or functional) can occur. These complications can result from the hydrocephalus itself, the surgical technique (type of material and surgeon experience) and infectious problems related
