Abstract | The two shunts that are performed much less and are included here for completeness are the ventriculosubgaleal shunt and the ventriculocholecystal shunt. The ventriculosubgaleal shunt is an established treatment of hydrocephalus following germinal matrix hemorrhage in low-birth-weight neonates. It is also used in the treatment of post-infective hydrocephalus in children. In our institution protocol, we have used this shunt in a wide variety of indications, especially in children below six months of age. Ventriculocholecystal shunts are very much a salvage shunts when all else fails. |
