Percutaneous construction of ventriculo-atrial (VA) shunt - Case report.

Introduction And Importance: The commonest method of elective CSF diversion remains ventriculo-peritoneal shunt (VP shunt). But in some circumstances, VP shunts fail repeatedly or becomes unattractive to the neurosurgeon and this calls for exploration of alternatives. For the index case, Ventriculo-atrial (VA) shunt was favoured and the objective in this report is to share experience gathered there from.
