    Journal: JPEN J Parenter Enteral Nutr; 1977; 1(3):156-9. PubMed ID: 98655.
    Abstract:
    A patient on home hyperalimentation after a series of infections, developed a "shunt nephritis" not unlike the nephritis reported in patients with hydrocephalus undergoing ventriculoatriostomy. Permanent eradication of infection and reversal of kidney damage required removal of indwelling catheter.
