| Popis: |
From October 1967 to September 1986, 51 children and 118 adults with nontumoral and tumoral hydrocephalus received cerebrospinal fluid shunt operations which included both ventriculoperitoneal shunts and ventriculoatrial shunts. The results of shunting operations with double lumen ventricular catheters were compared with the ones with other kinds of ventricular catheters. Fifteen children underwent shunt operations using double lumen ventricular catheters in which 6 cases had 24 shunt revisions. Only one shunt revision in one case was done due to trouble at the ventricular site. In contrast, 36 children had shunt operations using one of the other kinds of ventricular catheters like Pudenz and Denver in which 22 cases needed 48 shunt revisions. Fourteen shunt revisions in 12 cases were based on occlusion of ventricular site. |
