DOI: 10.1017/s104795112200395x
Abstract: BACKGROUND Transcatheter stenting of the arterial duct is an alternative to surgical systemic to pulmonary artery shunt in neonates with parallel circulation. The current study compares haemodynamic and laboratory values in these patients for the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1227/ons.0000000000000289
Abstract: BACKGROUND: Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) can cause debilitating symptoms and optic nerve ischemia if untreated. Cerebrospinal fluid diversion is often necessary to reduce intracranial pressure; however, current ventriculoperitoneal and lumboperitoneal shunting techniques have high failure… read more here.

DOI: 10.3171/2021.11.peds21390
Abstract: INTRODUCTION: Neonatal intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a major source of mortality and morbidity in infants, particularly following premature birth. Even after the acute phase, post-hemorrhagic hydrocephalus is a long-term complication, frequently requiring permanent ventriculoperitoneal shunt… read more here.
