Abstract
Five children are presented with complications related to migration of peritoneal shunt tubes. Anchoring the distal end of the peritoneal tube to the peritoneum was found to be a satisfactory answer to the problem in 13 children. This simple method does not add much to the operation time and has prevented shunt-tube migration in the group studied.Entities:
