Cerebrospinal fluid shunting for hydrocephalus: a retrospective analysis.

J D Metzemaekers1, J W Beks, J S van Popta.   

Abstract

A series of 383 extracranial CSF shunts performed between Jan. 1980 and Jan. 1985 for hydrocephalus in children and adults is reviewed. Ventriculoatrial (VA) and ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunts were compared with a special attention to infections. The difference between VA and VP shunts concerning indication of revision, operative mortality and infection related morbidity and mortality was not significant.
