Learn how to place a ventriculo-pleural (VPL) shunt, a cerebrospinal fluid diversion procedure that uses the pleural space as a distal site. Find out the advantages, disadvantages, and risks of VPL shunts, and how to avoid common complications such as pleural effusion and infection.
15 Σεπ 2021 · To the authors' knowledge, this is the first article to review CSF dynamics, pleural cavity physiology, VPL shunt insertion techniques, review of complications with VPL shunting in the literature and potential strategies to optimize VPL shunt tolerance.

15 Σεπ 2021 · In our review article, we soughtto review the development of VPL shunting, pleuropulmonary physiology, insertiontechniques for VPL shunt, complications associated with VPL shunts, and uniquestrategies to improve VPL shunt tolerance.
23 Αυγ 2023 · A ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is a cerebral shunt that drains excess cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) when there is an obstruction in the normal outflow or there is a decreased absorption of the fluid. Cerebral shunts are used to treat hydrocephalus.
6 Δεκ 2017 · This initial clinical and laboratory experimental was disappointing. In 1952, the use of ventriculopleural shunt (VPLS) was introduced in the English literature by Ransohoff and Hiatt (1952). They used a thin rubber or plastic tube to perform the procedure.
20 Οκτ 2021 · The VA and VPL options should be considered for patients with recurrent VP shunt issues. They are safe and effective options for managing complex hydrocephalus patients. Key Message: Ventriculoatrial and Ventriculopleural shunts remain effective alternatives for patients with recurrent ventriculoperitoneal shunt failures.
