Abstract:
Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt (VPS) is the most frequent method to treat obstructive or normal pressure hydrocephalus in neurosurgical practice. Intracranial coiling of the shunt is a very rare complication in the Child during management of hydrocephalus. Here we report a case of intracranial migration of the proximal and distal components of VPS in the Child.
