    Abstract:
    A pregnant woman with hydrocephalus who required multiple revisions of a ventriculoperitoneal shunt is discussed. Her symptoms improved after the replacement of the ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt with a ventriculoatrial (VA) shunt, suggesting the benefits of ventriculoatrial shunting during pregnancy.
