Abstract:
:An obese woman with benign intracranial hypertension had been managed for several years with lumbo-peritoneal shunting. Following a bilopancreatic procedure performed for management of her obesity dense peritoneal adhesions caused repeated shunt failure. The shunt system was successfully converted to a lumbo-atrial system.
