Risk factors for unfavourable outcomes after shunt surgery in patients with idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus

Scientific Reports, 2022
A number of vascular risk factors (VRFs) have been reported to be associated with idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH), but it remains unclear whether these VRFs are related to patient outcomes after shunt surgery.

Adult hydrocoele complicating a lumboperitoneal shunt

, 2011
We report an adult patient who developed a right-sided hydrocoele following a lumboperitoneal shunt. While hydrocoeles have been described as a rare complication following ventriculo- and lumboperitoneal shunts in children, we are unaware of any ...

Cognitive Processing Speed Assessment Combined With Gait Performance Improves Prediction of Shunt Surgery Responsiveness in Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

CNS Neuroscience &Therapeutics, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
Overview of the study workflow illustrating baseline assessment of cognitive function and gait performance in patients with iNPH, followed by CSF tap test and post‐tap test reassessment. Functional improvement rates were calculated based on pre‐TT performance, with 24 h selected as the optimal assessment time point.
