Cerebrospinal fluid shunt complications

Pediatric Emergency Care, 1995
Shunt malfunction and shunt infections are the most significant complications associated with cerebrospinal fluid shunts. Most cases of shunt infection are due to S. epidermidis or S. aureus. Seventy percent of all shunt infections present within two months of the shunt surgery.

Antibiotic Prophylaxis for Cerebrospinal Fluid Shunts

Neurosurgery, 1994
The value of antibiotic prophylaxis for clean neurosurgical procedures without the implantation of a foreign body has been conclusively demonstrated. Attempts to confirm its efficacy for cerebrospinal fluid shunt operations have produced confusing and inconclusive results.

Assessment of cerebrospinal fluid shunt patency

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 1983
Many invasive and noninvasive techniques for determining patency of CSF shunts have been developed and are reviewed. The need for noninvasive reliable simple tests that improve management is emphasised, and the Doppler ultrasound test is recommended.

[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
