The cost of serial cerebrospinal fluid aspirations between ventricular access device (VAD) and ventriculosubgaleal shunt (VSGS) for treatment of post-hemorrhagic ventricular dilatation (PHVD) in premature infants

Conclusion: Lower number of CSF aspirations using VSGS can be associated with considerably lower cost compared to VAD.
