Abstract
Bowel perforation by ventriculo-peritoneal shunts occurred in 2 children with no abdominal symptoms. The diagnosis in each instance was confirmed by opacification of the colon in 1 child and the small bowel in the other via contrast medium injection of the distal shunt tubing. Shuntograms are recommended for all patients with no readily evident cause of dysfunctioning CSF-peritoneal shunts.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
