Paper of the month

“Ventricular catheter tissue obstruction and shunt malfunction in 9 hydrocephalus etiologies”

We are pleased to present this month’s interesting study, “Ventricular catheter tissue obstruction and shunt malfunction in 9 hydrocephalus etiologies” authored by:

Maria Garcia-Bonilla PhD, Prashant Hariharan MS, MEng, Jacob Gluski MD, Miguel A. Ruiz-Cardozo MD, MPH, Ayodamola Otun MD, Diego M. Morales MS, Neena I. Marupudi MD, MS, William E. Whitehead MD, PhD, Andrew Jea MD, Brandon G. Rocque MD, MS, James P. McAllister II PhD, David D. Limbrick Jr. MD, PhD, and Carolyn A. Harris PhD.

Hydrocephalus is a neurological disorder with an incidence of 80–125 per 100,000 births in the United States. The most common treatment, ventricular shunting, has a failure rate of up to 85% within 10 years of placement. The authors aimed to analyze the association between ventricular catheter (VC) tissue obstructions and shunt malfunction for each hydrocephalus etiology.
