[The treatment of hydrocephalus by ventriculosinustransversotomy].
An anastomosis was established between the lateral ventricle and the lateral transverse sinus (ventriculosinustransversostomy) in the treatment of 32 patients aged from 2 months to 32 years suffering from hydrocephalus of various etiology. Hydrocephalus took a compensated course after the operation in 28 patients. Infectious complications developed in 2 patients. Occlusion of the shunt occurred 3-36 months after the operation in 6 cases. Ventriculosinustransversostomy may be the method of choice in the treatment of hydrocephalus when the application of the generally accepted c.s.f. shunting operations is inexpedient. Ventriculosinustransversostomy proves adequate in combination with operations on the region of the pineal gland and the posterior cranial fossa.
