abstract:OBJECTIVE:The Delta valve is a pressure differential valve with a siphon control device. The valve mechanism is normally closed, but is designed to open in response to positive ventricular pressure, thereby avoiding overdrainage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). As a result, the incidence of subdural fluid collections as w...
