Reversible visual loss after shunt malfunction.

C Cedzich1, J Schramm, D Wenzel.   

Abstract

Report on three hydrocephalic, shunt dependent children, who became blind due to shunt malfunction and rapidly decreased intracranial pressure. They regained vision several days (one case) or several months (2 cases) after shunt revision. The related literature is reviewed and possible pathophysiological mechanisms are discussed.
