  • Title: Hemichorea, an unusual complication of ventriculoperitoneal shunt.
    Author: Alakandy LM, Iyer RV, Golash A.
    Journal: J Clin Neurosci; 2008 May; 15(5):599-601. PubMed ID: 18328713.
    Abstract:
    We report an unusual case of left hemichorea in a 24-year-old male patient that followed the insertion of a right ventriculoperitoneal shunt. This completely resolved after removal of the shunt. A review of the available literature and the possible aetiopathogenesis is discussed.
