Risk of Ventriculoperitoneal Shunt Infections After Laparoscopic Placement of Chait Trapdoor? Cecostomy Catheters in Children
Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques, 07/07/09
Yamout SZ et al. - The series illustrates two different mechanisms by which a VP shunt can become infected after this procedure. In the first case, leakage of enteric content from a poorly sealed tract probably resulted in the shunt infection. More secure fixation of the cecum to the abdominal wall, using intracorporeal sutures rather than T-fasteners, may avoid this complication.
