The effects of lumboperitoneal and ventriculoperitoneal shunts on the cranial and spinal cerebrospinal fluid volume in a patient with idiopathic intracranial hypertension
VP and LP shunts differently affect the cranial and spinal CSF volume in patients with IIH. This is clearly demonstrated by the overdrainage induced by the LP shunt placement, when only the spinal portion of the CSF was reduced while the cranial portion remained unaffected. Our results emphasize the importance of a total cranial and spinal CSF space evaluation before neurosurgical procedures or during postoperative follow-up, which has been rarely performed so far. Such an evaluation could enable the selection of appropriate therapeutic procedures and early recognition of numerous side effects that occur after the placement of different types of shunts.
