VP Shunt Surgery
Medically reviewed by Dr. Udbhav Bansal, MBBS, MS, MCh Neurosurgery
Effective surgical management of hydrocephalus to relieve pressure on the brain.
Overview
Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt surgery is a life-saving procedure performed to treat hydrocephalus, a condition characterized by an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within the brain. During the surgery, a flexible tube (shunt) and valve system are placed to safely drain excess fluid from the brain's ventricles into the abdominal cavity, where it is naturally absorbed by the body.
