Predictors of ventriculoperitoneal shunt pathology
The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2001Diagnosis of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt pathology remains a dilemma in patients with nonspecific constitutional signs and symptoms. Eosinophilia has been described in association with shunt infection and malfunction. Our purpose was to further define the relationship of eosinophilia and shunt pathology and to determine other predictors of VP shunt

Subgaleal migration of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2006Blockage of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is very common. Here, we describe an unusual case of shunt blockage in an infant. He was shunted for hydrocephalus associated with a Dandy-Walker malformation diagnosed at birth. At surgery, the entire VP shunt was found to have migrated into the subgaleal space, which clinically presented as shunt ...

Hydrocele After Ventriculoperitoneal Shunting
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1981Hydroceles were noted in six patients who had ventriculoperitoneal shunts at less than 1 year of age. These took a few days to several months to develop. The incidence was 7% in girls and 23% in boys less than 1 year of age. Hydrocephalus was especially severe in the older patients in the group.

Cryptococcal ventriculoperitoneal shunt infection
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2014The standard treatment of hydrocephalus is placement of a ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt. While infection is a common complication, rarely are fungal organisms implicated. Cryptococcus neoformans has been reported in only nine cases of shunt infection to our knowledge.
