Abstract | Ventriculoperitoneal drainage is a widely accepted technique for the management of normal press ure hydrocephalus. With the advent of minimally invasive techniques, laparoscopy is being increasingly used for shunt placement. We present a patient treated for normal pressure hydrocephalus with laparoscopically guided ventriculoperitoneal drainage placement. A short review of the disease and surgical technique is discussed. |
