Introduction. The peritoneum is the preferred distal terminus of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunts. However, other anatomic locations can be considered when the peritoneum is not appropriate, such as in patients with infection or enough adhesions to prevent effective CSF absorption.
Ventriculoatrial shunt placement enables cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to flow from the cerebral ventricular system to the atrium of the heart. Ventriculoatrial shunt placement is indicated for...
Summary. The provider removes a shunt system for drainage of cerebrospinal fluid, or CSF, and then replaces it with a similar or other shunt system during the same operative procedure. Providers may perform the procedure when all three components of the system require replacement or for an infection of the shunt.
1 Φεβ 2022 · Herein we reviewed the technical aspects of ventriculoatrial shunt placement using an illustrative case. We focused on the different modalities for inserting and confirming the location of the distal catheter tip.
Ventriculoatrial (VA) shunts are provided to transfer cerebrospinal fluid from the cerebral ventricle into the right atrium of the heart. A single center experience of indications, procedure, and clinical outcomes in VA shunt was presented in current study.
20 Οκτ 2021 · Introduction: Alternate approaches such as ventriculoatrial (VA) or ventriculopleural (VPL) procedures still have a place in the surgical armamentarium for patients with recurrent ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt failures related to defective absorption, infections, or frequent malfunctions.
