Review
Complete migration of ventriculoperitoneal shunt into the ventricle
Neurol Sci.
2002 Jun.
Abstract
Proximal migration of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt is extremely rare. A medium pressure VP shunt was inserted in a 10-month-old infant suffering from severe hydrocephalus. One month later, complete migration of the shunt into the lateral ventricle was encountered. Possible causative mechanisms and the literature on this subject are briefly discussed.
