Serological investigations in children with colonized Spitz-Holter valves.

Abstract

It has been found that children with hydrocephalus, whose Spitz-Holter valves are colonized with Staph. albus, have an antibody to this organism in their serum. Children without colonized shunts have little or no such antibody. A test for this antibody is described, and its use in such cases is discussed.
