متن کاملLaparoscopic Management of Ventriculoperitoneal and Lumboperitoneal Shunt Complications
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Minimally invasive approaches for the initial placement of ventriculoperitoneal (VP) and lumboperitoneal (LP) shunts have been well described. A laparoscopic approach has multiple advantages over open techniques, including decreased morbidity, more rapid recovery, and ability to visually assess catheter function. However, few series have addressed the role of laparosco...
متن کاملLaparoscopic-Assisted Lumboperitoneal Shunt: A Simplified Technique
OBJECTIVES Lumboperitoneal shunt has been advocated as a better alternative to ventriculoperitoneal shunt in communicating hydrocephalus. To minimize the morbidity of subcutaneous tunneling or an open abdominal wound, we developed a simplified technique for laparoscopy-assisted placement of lumboperitoneal shunts.
