Differential Pressure Shunt for Simultaneous Diversion of Ventricular Fluid and Extracerebral Fluid

Conclusion: A single surgical procedure to implant a differential pressure shunt can simultaneously drain and obliterate an extracerebral fluid collection while managing the hydrocephalus. Compared to routines that include external drainage, differential pressure shunting requires fewer surgeries, shorter hospitalization, with expected less expense.Pediatr Neurosurg
