  • Look Inside

Three kinds of shunt function tests, a quantitative measurement of CSF flow through the shunt, measurement of ventricular fluid pressure and opening pressure of the abdominal slit valve and positive contrast shuntgraphy were described. These tests were performed in 28 occasions with suspected malfunctions of V-P shunt.

In 15 occasions in which malfunctions were verified at the time of revision, the flow study and the pressure study showed abnormal results in all cases, while the shuntgraphy was normal in 2 occasions where inadequacy of the opening pressure of the slit valve causing chronic symptoms of shunt malfunctions.
