- Further research is necessary to find the safest delivery and anesthesia methods for pregnant women with ventriculoperitoneal shunts (VP).
- Recent findings suggest that both vaginal delivery and neuraxial anesthesia can be safe options for these women, contrary to the previous recommendation of cesarean delivery.
- In a case series of 15 women with VP shunts, various delivery methods were utilized, and neuraxial anesthesia was performed without complications, indicating it should be considered for appropriately functioning VP shunts.
