Gaderer C, et al. - In children with hydrocephalus and active CSF infection, researchers retrospectively examined neuroendoscopic lavage as a new option for clearance of CSF. For this investigation, 50 consecutive subjects treated for CSF infection with hydrocephalus at the institution had their clinical data, microbiology, laboratory measures, shunt dependency, and shunt revision rate assessed retrospectively. In children with infectious conditions, neuroendoscopic lavage was a harmless and effective treatment for hydrocephalus. According to the findings, neuroendoscopic lavage resulted in a less overall shunt revisions in shunt-depended subjects and a less recurrent infections.
