Comparing the efficacy of Ventriculoperitoneal Shunts with Lumboperitoneal Shunts in the treatment of Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

2026-01-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) and Lumboperitoneal (LP) shunts are the most common treatments for Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus (iNPH). Shunt procedure choice is generally based on surgeon on preference rather than evidence. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to address this gap for evidence-based shunt selection in iNPH treatment. <h4>Methods</h4> Publications on post...
