17 years of experience with shunt systems in normal pressure hydrocephalus - From differential pressure to gravitational valves
Objective: Complication rate of shunting for normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) has significantly improved over the last decades. Especially the use of overdrainage protection has reduced the incidence of subdural hematoma and collections. However, gravitational valves were associated with other co...
